    Government Holidays Next Week?

    I know there is a list of official holidays posted somewhere.

    I sure don't remember next Monday-Wednesday being on the list?

    I'm told that Monday to Wednesday inclusive is a public school holiday throughout the kingdom.

    Can someone quickly confirm. This one got me by surprise?

    Anybody know the occassion?

    It is as far as I know. But my university is going to ignore it. The university might but the students wont. They have already told me they wont be here. Stupid to open as even my kids school is closed and the wife has it off as well. We could have gotten away.

    Why are we open? Because we dont teach tomorrow so the students can haze the freshmen.

    ^ Yes, it's true, my wife confirmed it yesterday. Enjoy your unexpected holiday.

    Apphisit gave us an extra day, Monday 6 July, in lieu of the Red Shirts fucking up Songkhran. Tuesday and Wednesday are Buddist Lent holidays.

    Thanks. Good but totally unexpected.

    I would have made plans to get out of Dodge for a spell.

    Thanks.

    Thanks Tommy.

    A month or two ago my wife told me that the government decided that Tuesday would be a holiday to give people a five day period.

    You've got to love this country. Today was Wai Kruh day at school, so not much teaching. One period only....

    You're in the south, right? My school in Songkhla is closed Mon-Wed - we knew about it months ago.

    Re: Government Holidays Next Week?

    I often log on to Ajarn and have done for years but seldom post.When I log on I get a message telling me I should post more often the interesting threads > so I check on the interesting threads What do I find? A load of waffle about holidays next week. Statements like My wife has confirmed it. I didnt know. Wednesday The 7th and 8th are holidays. They have been for years. They are printed in red on the calender.The question is about Monday It has not been published as a Holiday. So if you are off enjoy it if not Tough.

    So thats it I have posted like the message tells me to. I shall now return to hibernation to await the promised interesting thread.

    Just a point Yes I know the invitation to post is computer generated

    Solution. Find yourself an interesting thread.

    I don't think you get tarred and feathered if you don't bother posting?

    There is a good thread on Old Spice if you are looking for something interesting.
    If you ain't the lead dog the view never changes.
