Help please, what to do on Annual Leave!

fidou · January 21, 2013, 08:33:42 PM

OK, usually I have my Annual Leave organised and have a great time. I'm 2 weeks into my 4 weeks annual leave and have done everything I needed to do. My wifes in Europe with my oldest daughter and I'm looking after the other 2 girls (12 and 10) so money is tight. What can I do to amuse myself for 2 weeks?

I've already set up my team and am waiting for the NAB like everyone else.

Thanks as the girls love camping but I need to stay at home as I am co-ordinating my wifes trip from home.

Silly as it seems pitch the tent in the backyard & rough it from there.

Get them in the kitchen and bake some cakes.....it'll be a disaster but they'll love it

Thanks for all for the ideas. Am taking them today to see "Life of Pi". We saw The Hobbit on Friday and will see "ParaNorman"in a few days.

With the cooking my 12 year old is a fair cook and likes to cook meals every second day.

Nice idea about fishing- I might take them one day (although I'm not a fan of it)

Never used it myself, and never plan too, but basically it is some website where you go to and gret randomly allocated to chat to someone else in the world via webcam. Seems pretty stupid to me, but many people seem to like it if you believe wiki... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chat_Roulette

Thanks Crows Fan for sending my children to the world of Paedophilia. I'll give that a miss I think.
