Or rather (as the French have it), au revoir.
I’ve been blogging for just over two years now (two years, one week and six days, to be precise) and in that time I have posted one hundred and ninety-six, er – posts. Not counting this one. That’s about one every three to four days. For two years.
So – you guessed it – I’ve decided it’s time for a little blog-holiday. Just a couple of weeks, while I do a little decluttering, a little reading, a little handwork, and then I shall come back with new ideas fountaining out of my head like the feathers of a Las Vegas showgirl.
I have a few ideas already, such as – but no, that would be telling. Au revoir, then, mes amis, and I shall see you in two weeks.
In the meantime, feel free to entertain each other in the comment section with a discussion of paid leave entitlements. To kick things off: New Zealand has a minimum entitlement of four weeks paid leave per year. This is, alas, only available to those who have paying jobs. And you?
New commenters please note: I’ll be popping in and out to approve first-time comments as time permits. If your comment doesn’t appear straight off, rest assured it is not forgotten.
Oh, phew, I’m glad it’s only a two-weeks-Goodbye, not an I-Quit-Goodbye. I only recently learned of this blog existence, and reading the words ‘This is Goodbye…’ gave me one of those cinematic slow-motion experiences that go along the lines of “No-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o…!!!” with one’s hand reaching from an outstretched arm, fingers splayed.
Fear not! When the fields are white with daisies I’ll return. (Mental image of self running slow-mo through field of daisies…)
Phew! Heart stopped a little there. I thought you were handing in your notice. See you when back. Bring cookies.
Sorry – I seem to have eaten all the cookies while on holiday 🙂
…now that’s just wrong and you know it! 🙂
It was so hot! and humid! It was the only way to save them from a terrible fate…
