First day back and I am knackered! Plus having this cold doesn't help. My OH keeps feeling guilty because she gave me the cold. I wonder if I can play on it to get a nice cup of tea from her ![]()
Whenever I go back to work after a holiday, there are two questions I always hate to hear and I get them so many times. And they are....
"Have you had a good holiday?"
Do people really want to know? "Well it wasn't bad until I ended up with food poisoning and started spewing my guts out everyhwere, which is not pleasant in a public loo (Especially a ladies) And now I have this cold...." or should I just say "Yeah it was good"
And the second question always seems to follow the first...
"Did you do anything nice?"
I always seem to fall down on this one, especially compared to others. I want to be honest and say "Yeah I had a great time sitting around doing nothing but vegging in front of the TV and playing computer games" but I know they will only respond with "Oh we spent a week in the Himilayas saving the lesser spotted smow elk from extinction". And I know if I do tell the truth I will get the response "Oh well, sometimes it's good just to do nothing" as if it's a rarity, when really that's how I spend most of my holidays.
So the next time someone asks I will say that I am fine and I spent the last week up the Himilayas saving them from people intent on saving them from extinction!
