What are you doing this Easter?

Going on Holiday? Stuck in work? Just spending the day in bed? Stuffing yourself with Easter eggs?

It's come bloody early this year, school even has to finish on Thursday, because they couldn't have school on Easter Friday...

It is literally one month apart from the February Holidays, the Feb Holidays are one month after the Christmas holiday. The last term till Summer will be so long.:cry:

Well the Easter Holidays is in two weeks, I can't wait, I'm going to Czech Republic again, XD Love you Low cost airlines, (Jet2) XD

Anyway I wont try and boast to you unlucky people who will have to work, during this refreshing time of the year.

So what are you doing this Easter?

Revision unfortunately, as my exams start in the second week of May. Rubbish. I do get 5 weeks off though which is good, it makes up for the rather pathetic 3 weeks off I had at Christmas (pathetic in terms of uni holidays anyway).

So save the last dance

For me my love 'cause I

I see you as an angel freshly fallen from the sky...

The holiday is really early, my holiday starts next Friday, which isn't good, because my deadlines are messed up by it. They've already had to extend 2 deadlines because there's just no way the required stuff can be done in time.

I shall be trying to work out what the hell I'm going to do for my dissertation, doing a million pieces of coursework and also doing a year's worth of 'extra reading' for my exams that I haven't done any of yet. As far as Easter celebrations go, I have replaced chocolate in my life with garibaldi biscuits. I'll have some hot cross buns as well, they're nice. Being intolerant to both chocolate and eggs, Easter is a bit pointless really. Oh and some family time.

Also in early April I'm going away for a few days to a different city with my friend, but it's a secret because if my other housemates find out, they won't be happy, because they are unbalanced and scarily possessive so I lie to them.

I put my name down to work the holiday. I cant think of anything worse then Easter. I hate chocolate. yet everyone insists on buying me easter eggs. Id rather be in work getting double time.

Do you get days in lieu for the bank holidays as well? Or is that something else employers are forgetting about now?

None of the above, I fear..sonce I was about 15, the number of eggs seems to have dwindled. Now, I'll be lucky to get one :( unless I buy it myself hehe :hahaha:

The most heroic act is the one that no-one knows about.

    • Yeah he's on more than usual including this Sunday and then 3 more shows in May according to the above. Makes me think it's James for the weekend shows also
    • For some reason there is 'Summer on Radio 1' listed on Sunday 2nd June, could this be replacing M&M until July?
    • They seem to be using James more for cover now makes me think it will be him getting weekends eitjer breakfast or 1 till 4 
    • Yep am very much Capital Breakfast now. Jordan, Chris and Sian are a great trio and it's got that feel of the old shows Jordan and Chris used to do on Radio 1. It doesn't take itself too seriously but is packed full of content and slick. With Greg he's great but 6 years in you've probably heard it all before plus frankly I can sit through the Capital Playlist a lot more easily than the Radio 1 playlist (where some of the inclusions and omissions can be quite baffling at times). Plus after things like the Oscars or Met Gala or if there's a particularly big TV show or film or popstar then Greg won't half wang on about it at times. I guess it's partly to be expected with it being a Breakfast show on a young station but it can feel very London bubble and get tired.
    • Ore Olukoga is in for Arielle on Tuesday 14th May. James Cusack is in for Danny Beard on Saturday 1st June. James Cusack is in for Nat on Sunday 2nd June.
    • I honestly never thought in a million years I’d move from Radio 1 to be a regular Capital breakfast show listener. But it’s got pretty much everything I want - 3 really genuine, entertaining mates having a laugh, playing silly games and it all sounds great. I became a big fan of Chris from his days with Scott, became a Jordan fan on Going Home, and Sian Welby is newer to me but is loads of fun too.  It’s great and I’ve shocked myself by transferring my listening at breakfast. For me Greg’s show now feels very tired and it’s time for something new. But with Jordan gone that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon. Greg’s had a great run and I’m a fan - but there’s no new ideas now. I still listen to Radio 1 at other times - but this show feels like very serious competition for Greg. 
    • They have built four new studios to increase capacity, alongside the existing six.  Bearing in mind that some of the output of R1, 1X, R2 & 6M comes from elsewhere, and Asian Network is gradually moving all output to Birmingham, this should be enough!
    • How do they manage to cater for 6Music and Radio 2 on that floor? Did they adapt it? 
    • I think we've all figured out now how much you like it @AndyK77 😂 Personally while I think it's by far the best show on the Capital schedule and better than its predecessor, it still has the shortened songs and other commercial-radio aspects that remind me why I'm a Radio 1 fan. No matter how well this has worked out for Jordan, and all credit to him for landing the job, I can't help but feel that a Jordan and Katie show on R1 breakfast would have been so much better!
    • A few weeks in and I am actually loving the show and Jordan is a nice mix of his old chaotic self and dare I say it a slick jock.
    • He must be in his element. At Eurovision and a Gold award!
    • I really like Rylan, and as much of a fun idea it would be to have Scott and Rylan together, I think Rylan is too much of a main character.  Scott needs a side-kick rather than a full on co-host I think. That’s why he and Chris worked so well, Scott steered the show, and Chris was the perfect person to have alongside him.    I don’t religiously listen to Rylan’s show, but when I do catch it, it’s perfect weekend energy. He has a very warm presenting style too, but something makes me think he and Scott together every day would be a bit too much.     
    • So pleased for Scott on his best entertainment show win. As much as I miss his R1 style, he clearly puts so much into his shows, well deserved and it’s a big two fingers up to all the abuse he has had since joining R2
    • There are a lot that share your sentiments. People have made comparisons to the different takes to Ukraine. 
    • It's a big 'No' from me (Israel-Palestine). No further comments.
