I used to look a year ahead and get in 1st and book those sort of days in as holiday leave.  Where I used to work, unless they had urgent work to be done, they couldn't refuse you holidays if no one else was off.
all the people other then my wife at her work think the same way also apparently  ::) I got her to check taking the Monday off atleast a month ago....no chance of that happening apparently. There are pretty much no holiday vacancies for the second half of the year available either, and none in any of the school holiday periods. Sadly our eldest daughter is pretty much at the age we can't remove her from high school to take holidays anymore, though i may still do it early in the year as we don't have a choice now what holidays periods the wife can get. We are already booking stuff for 2017 holidays, that's how rediculous her work place is  ::)

Were going to Yeeda station (Which is close to Willaire Road house http://www.willare.com.au/ for those that have been our way (We stay in one of the cottages on the property as my wife runs the Broome office for Yeeda pastoral company (you may also have seen Yeeda if you watched Matt Morans padlock to plate opps i mean paddock, we got to have lunch with him as well - very cool day)

Anyway we will get a few down us at the road house then head back the back way to Yeeda which can be a lot of fun if wet (ended up winching last year)

Should thrown a line aswell as there are some good barra pools here at the moment and the local station hands are pulling them out by the bucket load and that should be about that. I'll try to get some video footage this year as I've over taking photos.

I've just realized that this is a 4 day week-end.....  8)

The Tuesday is Australia of course, but bugger me dead, the Monday is the National Independent Mower Man's Associations Nation Picnic Day. (TRUE)

So, because I'm an Indie, I get 4 days off........suffer in ya jocks on that one.
