It's half term

Me and @Baldybonce_JNR are on our way to Manchester to have a look at the National Football museum, stadium tours of UTD and City and the War museum of the north.
Anyone taking the kids anywhere?

    Mine get two weeks , I'm taking a couple of days next week as that's when most schools go back.

    Might have to pay a trip to some museums in town.

    While you are in Manchester, the Museum of Science & Industry is well worth a visit.

    As all true Addicks will know, it includes within its site the old Liverpool Road Station. The station was the Manchester terminus of the world's first inter-city passenger railway (the Liverpool and Manchester Railway) in which all services were hauled by timetabled steam locomotives. It is now the world's oldest surviving terminal railway station.

    Im preparing to for the moans of all the mums with an entourage of kids and bags which are all considerably more than she can handle, getting on a busy commuter train and moaning that she can't get enough seats all together for her kids. Then having them screaming the entire journey and her not bothering to shut them up.

    Urgh. I hate half term.

    Disneyland Paris. Got here yesterday afternoon, my daughter was beside herself when she saw the castle. I was beside myself when we got to the bar.

    Did that last year, loved it - great place.

    Great!!! Extra grandchildren in the house, I had to get up before 9.00 and I’m not allowed to walk around the house in my figure hugging newly purchased silk boxers. I did get to eat a Farley’s rusk for breakfast and we have stewed apple a custard for lunch and it was just a matter of time before i having my meals liquidised again! ;)

    My eldest is complaining that the chicken pox he gave my youngest is ruining his half-term. Fortunately the wife has taken them both down to the grandparents for a couple of days so I don't have to deal with the internal warfare at the moment, plus the trains are really quiet. Bonus!

    Great drive to work this morning and no "cherubs" there when I got in. They should all be out terrorising the Medway Towns this week, so If you are a local, please wear a tin hat if you venture out and make sure you secure all points of entry to your property.
  • Sending my kids to the workhouse for the week. About time the lazy shits put some graft in.

    Clearer roads are a bonus during anytime the kids have off! Drawback is I work in the city center and that's where all they mostly congregate. I'm just miserable...sorry...

    Not half term up here yet. Have to wait until Thursday. Youngest daughter will head off on a Brownies trip whilst my wife and I pop down to London for the weekend.

    On a campsite at Vilanova I la Geltru, between Barcelona and Tarragona, with the missus and 13 year old son.
    Weather glorious and set fair for the rest of the week. Any excuse to hold back the British autumn/winter for another week.
