So you've been short changed there then.:)
Ah well... the actual Senior Race Bank holiday has been moved from the coming Friday to September because of the cancellation of the TT Races so I've had to use half a days holiday to take this Friday off.

But yes you're right, if a Manx bank holiday falls on a Friday then I don't get the full benefit. Well, until I find a new job where I do actually work a full Friday of course. ;)
 
They told me on the phone that on average the sell in ten days here. My experience in looking at bungalows is they sell in a week if below 200k!

I just found out earlier that all houses under 250K are sold within 4 days here, also the mod
are giving 30k to peeps who are relocating to here from Portsmouth o_O
Young folks have no chance of getting on the property ladder here.

Well this a.m. was a bit eventful.
Wifey has found out her blessed parcel still hasn't arrived at son's place in Paris.
So she got all emotional and started talking about suing Parcel2Go etc.
She has a habit of going from A to Z without passing through B, C etc.
AND, worse than that, she got onto me BEFORE BREAKFAST. Hanging offence!!!:mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
Looks like either the French concierge has nicked it, or some other frog git has nicked it. This is not the first time a parcel we have sent to friends in Paris has gone missing. The barstewards.:mad::mad::mad::mad:
A hand knitted cardigan and a silver locket, family heirloom.
Allegedly they tried to deliver it 4 times but no one ever turned up to deliver.
We shall see. I hope stepson goes into the Chronopost office with all the paperwork and a hand grenade!
Send it dhl next time
