What plans do you have for the holiday?

This is going to attract exactly the wrong kinda people, but I'm going to continue to be vague anyway...

What are your plans for the holiday? I work until 4pm and then have a meeting, so I'm going to miss the last pass. I might stay up for the first one.

Then I think I'm going to go over to a friends and thank him for the bounty.

Not my best one, where I left 'specially' packed plastic eggs everywhere, but I'm optomistic that this will be a good one.

Anyone got any plans?

The holiday. The 'special' one.



It involves lighters

Yes! Monday is ANZAC day, the day when Australians, New Zealanders and Turks commemorate our war dead with special emphasis on the first world war and the battles at Gallipoli. It will be dawn services and street parades for me! I will be following this with BBQ and beer. Very traditional ceremony, 90 years old this year. ;)

Yes, the eternal flame. What a sad day for the nation when those drunk foreign backpackers tried to extinguish this monument to our war dead with their butts.

Well, his is-which is perfectly valid. But mine-thats a very Northern Californian holiday, that involves lighters, that has spread out over the last few years...

We have two long weekends in a row with ANZAC day on Monday, then next monday is May day. :)

Of course the thread starter probably meant some other holiday, but THIS IS A FEATHER DUSTER AND I KNOW HOW TO USE IT!!!

pffft an 'australian' holiday? The letters N and Z are in ANZAC for a reason. The turks still find it amusing that we celebrate a battle we lost..
