Last weekend was Easter, so those people that work Monday to Friday (not me!), had Friday, Saturday, Sunday and Monday off. Actually I did have the whole weekend off, as Easter weekend marked the end of my sick leave, and the day I was due back to work (Easter Monday) was a rest day in my duty pattern!!
This weekend was also a long weekend for the Monday to Friday people, as Monday was the May Day bank holiday and Prince William decided to marry his girlfriend on the Friday, we got an extra bank holiday. I was back to work by then (Thursday was my first day), so I worked Thursday, Friday (double bubble), Saturday and Sunday and yet again Monday was a rest day in my duty pattern.
Hubby (also not a Monday to Friday person), has a tendency to get bank holidays off, as buses, if they run, run on a Sunday service, so there aren't so many, so they don't need so many drivers!! This meant for hubby he had Good Friday off, worked Saturday, off Easter Sunday and Monday, then this weekend, had the wedding and Saturday off, worked Sunday and then had May day off. Bit weird, but that is the way they do things!!!
So today sees then end of the double bank holidays and we are all back to normal. Shame, I like the double time and lieu days :)
I have been back at work for four days and all appears well. A few niggles and twinges, but I supposed that is to be expected. Surprisingly I had a twinge the other day which was like the pain I had before the gall stones were removed. It didn't last and I wonder if it is like when people have a limb amputated they can still feel it? Anyway, I feel much better than before.
