Futbol Prem Thread 23/24 v18: A Mad Ending

[Ignicious]

Seven - eight - ten days seems completely excessive and decadent. Can you ski? Did you do skihopping?

The closed stores are the only thing that bothers me. If you want a beer or similar you have to go to the pub and pay up to 10 quid for one glass (unless you prepared for it beforehand)

When I was a kid we still had consistant winters, used to ski all the time. Skihopping was mandatory when we were kids (always ended pretty gnarly or hilariously).
Always wanted to try one of those huge hills in Planica, Kulm or Vikersund. Would easily beat the world record (on me neck)

Is Easter just a weekend thing over there?
Sheesh, the whole country basically shuts down for 8 days up here.

Monday through Wednesday are ordinary days. On Thursday and Friday all stores are closed except gas stations, deli's or immigrant stores (all workers gets payed double)
On saturday it is almost normal up until 4 in the afternoon
Yesterday and today is like Thursday and Friday(double pay)

Thats because you mountain monkeys has oil and salmon money.
There its holidays but every shop more or less has open and so does all restaurants and what not.
But then we are dirty poor and have to work

Damn right! I worked three days with double pay last week. Gots to get dat monies.
Every shop is more or less closed from Thursday up until tomorrow though.

If you're so poor why don't you just join that Foxtrot network?

Good Friday is a Bank Holiday in the whole UK. Easter Monday is a Bank Holiday except in Scotland. Bank Holidays are observed less as time goes on but still a lot of people are either off work or work shorter hours.

The Saturday and Sunday don't have the special status of Bank Holiday, and again Sunday is observed less as a Day of Rest as time goes on, but still a lot of workplaces either shut or have shorter hours. So it's a four day weekend but not 100%, for everyone. There are various entertainments layed on. It's been very busy in Whitby and we still have one day left. Someone fell off the bridge lol.

You only mentioned Thursday to Monday, which is five days, not eight. I used to work at a supermarket and got paid triple for working on New Year's Day but that was a while ago - you probably (?) wouldn't get that now.

In the States it's just a weekend. More church attendance on Sunday (probably Good Friday too) and family dinners with the ladies in floral dresses and bonnets. But mostly it's just Easter egg hunts, chocolate bunnies and peeps for the kids.
I was genuinely surprised when I found Aldi closed on Sunday. But no worries, everything else was open.

When you think about it, Easter should really be bigger than Xmas......

Rising from the dead >>> being born, even if you believe Mary hadn't taken a load.

Some places it is I'm sure. Every year during Easter the news shows plays a clip from the Phillipines where people gets crusifixed.
Some guy did it for the 35th year in a row.

Not Easter here until May weirdly......

Have seen similar in South America, though it's a bit of a stretch to say they were crucified. Are we talking, nails, hammers, blood?

The absolute state of your av

We’re two points behind, 9 games to go and have the better GD than Liverpool. Mug! Where are Tottenham?

To answer your question though, no
