You see, the ones of us who have proper jobs haven't got the week off.

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

You're on Instructables all day!! You work at home, don't you?

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

no! i dont work at home. But im always checking ibles - i am uk time zone, so most of your day is my evening.

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Ohhh. How far are you from Kiteman?

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

erm, about 2-3 hours drive away i believe (about half the country)

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Wow, that is smaller then my "state" which takes about 6-7 hours to go from where I am to the far end (about 2/3's through it). Of course, if you are going faster then 70 MPH, maybe it isn't as small as I picture it?

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

well the uk is small,

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Yer-her my state is about twice the size of your entire group of islands :) (KJisle included)

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Nahr, ees culd an ya'll folks talk strange o'er there...

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

That's cool! You guys should meet up and ~~eat eggs~~ collaborate on an awesome UK typed Instructable. Or U.S. HAHAHHAHAHA!!!

well, google says 4 hours, but we went to norfolk on holiday, and visited both norwich and great yarmouth! that only took us about 3 hours i think.

The AA obey the speed limits...

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

:o

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Use the AA to check - Lowestoft or Norwich are close enough to get an idea of how far it is.

The ones with proper jobs get to take their holidays when the prices are two thirds lower.

_{And the ones who complain about teachers' holidays are usually at the back of the queue when somebody suggests trying it for themselves...}

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

haha, you do get more holiday time though.

_{also, do i look stupid enough to end up working on a school?}

Ah, the secondly statement explains why I have seen you up and in here a wee bit later then I would normally expect (it is 17:08 now, making it what, 9 or 10 pm now) except on some Fridays ;-) .

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

As I type, it's 9.15pm. I should be working, school break or not - I have about 90 books and about 60 assessments to grade before the end of the week. I am, though, a terrible victim of procrastination. I'll probably end up spending all next Sunday marking into the wee small hours.

I always forget which half of DST effects the time difference (whether GMT -4 or -5) :-) Yeah, I know how it is, I feel that way myself many times.

Select as Best AnswerUndo Best Answer

Oh.. Hmm. A huge time difference... I already told you!
