UK and US public holidays today

It’s going to rain…

Apparently.

Today I will probably be mostly trying to relax and also watching the MW2 trailer over and over again.

Oh don’t update today. Go play with the kids.

It’s not a UK holiday. Scotland and NI don’t have a holiday today.

/sigh

Nor does Denmark.

Both Scotland and NI are off today.

PWNT!!!111

My kids are at school, my wife and various of my mates are all at work. The local businesses and offices are all open.

Yep, defintely a holiday in Scotland today, just like Pat says.

Oh, and I’ve just been talking on the phone to someone at a major Scottish dev studio. And they’re all at work today.

pwnt again!

I’ve been lied to by the government. Again.

From that link you posted: “Businesses and schools are not necessarily closed on Scottish bank holidays”

It’s our dour Calvanist work ethic; no holidays, while there’s money to be made!

im sitting here watching ultimate fighter with my mate and then we’ll probably do some a few games of COD4 on this mini lan

was a girls 21st on saturday but she was dancing to terrible music which graces terrible films such as high school musical. so we were playing games all night.

Ahhhhh, lazy dazy long weekend

I used today (and last night) to FINALLY get Platinum on Burnout.

Woohoo. Now for Uncharted. The other easy one.

“Both Scotland and NI are off today.”

I wanna go yay, but I’m off even if it wasnt a Bank Holiday.

I’m dying (not really, just a really bad flu)

It’s 35°C over here. And no holiday.
