Working in the UK for a US company I have become aware of the fact that Americans (much, much more religious than Brits) don’t have any public holidays for Easter, while we have a Good Friday & Easter Monday off work. Over here Easter is basically about chocolate, DIY and rainy days out. I built a shed, my kids ate chocolate and my wife drove down to see her dad. Today it’s raining. A thoroughly British Easter 🙂
Yeah, but you didn’t build the shed. Good job I had the Monday off work because I couldn’t move. 😉
Isn’t that what Mondays off are for? Not moving, I mean? 😉
When I woke up I began planning how I was going to fix the fence next to the shed. As I swung my legs out of bed my next thought was: “nope!”
A glorious Monday morning doing bugger all ensued. As you say, it’s the proper way of enjoying such days. 🙂

That sounds pretty good to me.
