Not when you don't care what it sounds like.

5 months away? No idea what I'll be doing yet.  Do we have an accurate weather forecast to help us all decide?

Rain for Wales.

*usually* a good weekend for weather that,  this year being an exception ;)

I'll be doing nothing in particular, and don't need to take leave, as my local authority employer has so kindly given me the rest of my life off, starting 1st April.  Thank you George Osborne...  I suspect finding alternative employment may not be that easy...

At sea, east of Suez, dived at 120 meters and totally isolated from news from the outside world.  ;D

I think you do win, yes.

IF I am not at work, I shall probably go for a bike ride.

The key thing is timing.  During big world cup matches the traffic suddenly reappears seconds after the final whistle.  So the best strategy is probably to get out there early and time the end of the ride, for just after they wave from the balcony at Buck House (or whatever). 

Then I shall have a bath and watch the wedding, which I will have taped.  Well, it's history, isn't it.  And I think she'll be a gorgeous bride  :P

Helping to organise our local music festival, for which we are about to decide to throw open the site  on the  Friday to the town for a massive street party. Regardless of views on the Monarchy, it has left us with little choice.
It is simpler than it looks.

Probably making preparations for our wedding ... got a little worried that the "unemployed girl to wed soldier from welfare family" affair was going to muck it all up, but the dates are far enough apart to not worry about it.

Doing something very similar to christmas/new year such as not buying any papers or listening to any radio stations other than Planet Rock, locking myself in at Cyclemagic and either working on my Capri, Citroen van or a motorbike.

I might even bring enough stuff down so I can camp here for a few days, with the main gates to the yard closed and locked, it'll be heaven :thumbsup:
