I've been using some compensation days the past month to have 4 day weeks. Now I'm on a 4 day weekend before going on holiday after next Friday. It's a great way to ease yourself into vacation mode!

Then I'll come back to work on a Thursday so I only have 2 days before weekend.

There's no love quite like your cat running towards you in the garden, tail held high, coming for a boop 🥰

Go, relax! If holidays don't get used within 18 months here, they expire. It's kind of annoying being forced to take holiday, but also good because then you use them.

You should take 4 weeks, go somewhere nice, relax, then use the remaining 5 weeks to have 4 day weeks for half a year!

I'm guaranteed to go back to one of them, but would love to visit the other three again 😍 There's just all the other places that need seeing too. So stressful!

Furthest I've been:

N: Tromsø, Norge
E: Sydney, Australia
S: Hobart, Australia
W: Lima, Perú

True! But I was just about to post one for myself, and realised I wrote Sydney, Australia but Hobart, Tasmania...then I realised you also did the same 😆 Are we seccesionists?

Prime meridian already has the cool name going for it, let others share the limelight.

That'll give my E answer as Sydney, which makes it seem like I never got very far from home 😆

I certainly don't identify as a beef cake. You need to go to Australia to experience the diversity of Aussies... and the water.

There used to be an Aussie chain called Homestead Chicken which was the best 🤤 but it couldn't compete with big chicken and closed down.

North & south destinations I can understand, but how do you limit the most east or west without just ending up at the same place 😵‍💫
Also is your POV the standard for these, or just personal choice?

Ouch. I ran out of coffee beans a few weeks ago & was caffeine free for 3 days. I feel your pain 😵

I haven't seen, no. Uber is same price as taxis here, and I get a discount with a taxi company. But they don't offer the TARDIS option, so I might have to check Uber out.

That should mean it's instantly a mint condition antique. You'll be rich!

*boop*

Oh wow had totally forgotten that show existed! I only have good memories, so clearly I never got through it all.

This was the best news to wake up to today! Proud of the people in my home city 🥹

Scheiße

Does that mean you failed?

*whispers* hi

Have you tried hair of the dog?

Those little pink beanies 😻

People born in 2000 must have it so easy. At least the ones born earlier in the year.

I can probably count on both hands the amount of times the dryer was used at home growing up. Pretty sure no place I lived in AU after that had one!

But what if the cake is a lie?

That's annoying 😢 Here you can raise a report for anything online, even minor stuff. It all gets logged and registered. Not always looked into, and you can even say you don't want that done, you just want it reported for statistics etc.

Any time, I'm always available to tell other people what I think they should do

Personally I'd choose the first option, but that's mainly because my barber is (based on where I now live) out of the way, and the price is not something I need to pay more than necessary 😂

Yes!

I'm apparently old enough, that some of my old paperwork is starting to get that yellow blotchiness that old paper gets

Oh yeah I love that trick!
