For me It all depends on what the weather is like leading up to Chistmas, if it stays like this i will finish Christmas eve and go back on the 2nd Jan.
Im not scared of heights, just falling from them.

I'm planning on finishing on the 23rd and going bk on the 3rd jan.any work that doesnt get completed wont get done until next year.ill get it done unless we get a repeat of last years big freeze!cant see it happening again this year though!

The 2nd Jan is a bank holiday due to new years day falling on a sunday so a straight 10 days off for me.

Regards

I would work Christmas Eve but there are Elf and Safety issues.
I keep tripping over the little buggers, as they are unloading the sleigh.

Every year I aim to have the week off between Xmas and New Year.  Every year I don't manage it.  This year I will aim to have that week off again - apart from the few little weekly/twice weekly jobs that I have.

Don't you guys who work seemly all the time get bored of window cleaning? ??? I always have a good 7-10 days off at xmas.

Do you think some of you are workaholics?

Don't get me wrong I work hard but I know when to take a break!
