So what are you British sods spending today doing?

I'm at work.I walked over Waterloo Bridge this morning and there were only 2 people in sight.'Ghost Town' by the Specials sprang to mind.

Memorial day for the us of a. my dad is home installing an hdtv in the family room. Me? I do nothing everyday but right now TCM has some sort of war movie marathon and I'm watching that.

It was a warm, sunny bank holiday in my part of the world.

There was a plan at one stage that all EU countries would get all EU countries' bank holidays, if you see what I mean. But they realised that Europe would be shut for basically the whole of March.

I may trundle along to a party. It'll be full of college kids. I'm not sure if it's a good idea. As yet, being as I am unemployed, Bank Holiday days are pretty much the same as normal days.

Didn't the Sex Pistols used to sing about this?

Toilet & Bowels 05.29.2006 05:38 PM

i spent the day reading comics, listening to music and fucking about on the internet.

Iain 05.29.2006 06:37 PM

I spent it doing a bit of reading, some shopping, some cooking and playing Black and White 2 and Half Life 2. I haven't played any computer games for a while so it was nice.

Iain 05.29.2006 06:38 PM

Oh, and also fucking about on the internet of course.

acousticrock87 05.29.2006 07:49 PM

I love the UK threads. All this talk of "trundling about me flat" on the "holiday". I want to be British...

Oooooh! Is black and white 2 awesome as hell even more than the first? I sure do want to play it.

I was getting pretty compelled by it yesterday....it was only the demo though. My friend has just won a copy on ebay though....might try and get a copy or something.
