Christ , in the 60’s you spent half term chucking bangers at the enemy , lighting fires and burning potatoes on the fire , raiding the other guys bonfires or setting them on fire , or just chucking bricks at each other . At Halloween you carved a turnip if you could afford one . You had a a small box of Brocks fireworks or Standard or Lion if you were posh . Cannons were pretty loud , sparklers were chucked anywhere and the night was choking with smoke - ah happy days !!!

I suggest you started on some medication. Replying to someone about people having time off doesn’t mean they are referring to them. As I said, love to see what these people cherishing their 10 days with their families would do if pubs, restaurants, takeaways and supermarkets all shut down for 10 days so their workers could have the same. **** all to with what architects do.
