Thank you John. I always enjoy your writings. and,
to those of us who have no time for dxpeditions, it
gives me something to look forward in my retirement.

Thanks for that Drifter - I am always surprised at how little annual
leave and holidays American's have. But before I retired in Joburg we
used to get away to a DX site after work on Friday and DX Friday and
Saturday night = always great fun.

But my DX mates who are still members of the "working classes" get
lots of leave - in South Africa 20 days paid leave plus 13 public
holidays are mandatory and many companies like my old one give a lot
more. In my last company before I retired I got a whopping 52 days
leave a year and could accumulate that, so when I retired I got a
lovely large lump sum payout.

Some of my American pals get only one weeks leave a year = horrors!

Yeah, it great. The middle class works it ass off and now we are getting
screwed. I'll probable never retire.
