To ask what are your bank holiday plans?

Tomorrow is the last bank holiday until Christmas!

I think there's always a bit of pressure to make the most of it as it also signifies the beginning of the end of summer.

I'm looking for inspiration. What is everyone planning to do?

Nothing special - we're retired so it makes no difference to us. Ok, so I sound smug!But at least we're not getting in the way of people who need a break more than we do.

Not doing anything today. I'm going to the gym in the morning. I'm self employed and would have been quite happy to work tomorrow. Bank holidays are a nuisance as far as I'm concerned.

Working because of a shift swap. I’m not bothered about bank holidays.

It's a bank holiday? I'm self--employed and doing a PhD so normal working day for me.

GoTigers · 25/08/2024 16:03

Working unfortunately.

Just had a long walk and a pub roast- I was driver and we’re just back at the house having coffee then heading out for drinks and to see a band. 4 adults, no kids.
