Langdale Wolf Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 I have more time off than ever before this June. I've got a half day on June 11th to enjoy the opening ceremony and first game of the World Cup. Then I'm off from Thursday 17th June - plenty of footy to watch inbetween Glastobation sessions. Then I'm off on the Monday and Tuesday after the festival. I'm normally at work until the day before we leave, so having nearly a week before will be amazing. And - most importantly - I'll get to spend some time with my little boy who I'm really going to miss when I'm at Glastonbury. Two whole weeks - I can't wait. Well, actually I can because today is my last day before I'm off to St Ives for a week. Happy times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mel & Claire Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Leaving Huddersfield Tuesday morning to allow plenty of time for driving down. Staying the night in a B&B about a mile from the site! Heading back early Monday morning to avoid the traffic in the car-park. First time this year (been the last two) that one of us hasn't been working on the Tuesday!

featherboa Posted May 12, 2010 Report Share Posted May 12, 2010 Starts on the Wednesday, was hoping to get the Tuesday off but my colleague has booked two weeks off for the World Cup so I can't. Hope that my bosses don't ask me to change my holiday because of the clash! I booked the time off before Christmas, super organised! It finishes the Tuesday after Glasto and I'm back to work on the Wednesday (hopefully half recovered!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
