of a holiday and go riding or bum around drinking etc but duty calls this

Ye funny enough alright but I still go out to pubs and stuff just dont bother drinking. Most of my friends think Im nuts the way I do it. This time last year I was pretty much a part time alcoholic and it was great fun but cant seem to enjoy it this year. Ah well another month or two and Ill be thirsty again then all hell will break loose

Not working this Christmas, no bugger will employ me

but as a Firefighter, I worked 19 out of twenty Christmases. The only one I had off was when we were on strike.

Have a good one FF, I know it sucks but I for one sleep a little easier knowing people like you, the Ambos, nurses etc are out there watching our backs.
