This from The Telegraph online on the 24 February 2021:
EU leaders will call for the continuation of tight coronavirus restrictions, including bans on non-essential travel such as holidays on Thursday...
Well, I'm not really surprised they disapprove of Thursday holidays. I mean, if you have a holiday on a Thursday then you spend Friday telling everyone about your day off, and then by the time you've got your head into work-mode again it's the weekend.
I'm still quite surprised that EU leaders actually want to pass a law about it, though.*
Word To Use Today: Thursday. This day is named after the Norse god Thor, the god of thunder, the one with a hammer. In Old English the word is Þūnresdæg.

Just love those dinky shorts!
*I know the piece meant to imply that on Thursday there was going to be a call for restrictions on travel.
Still it's more fun this way, isn't it.
