best use of easter weekend: questionaire

Hi all, I am at home with spare time, at long last, but am faced with a quandry about what to do over the Easter bank holiday weekend, having spent almost all of the last week havig a break, lounging about, window shopping and socialising. I have compiled a handy poll to help clarify the issue for myself, and maybe others.

I have been doing a bit of PhD work today, and have tackled a cadburys chocolate button chocolate chick thing already (made me feel a bit sick).

I think you should get an 'air supply' for your air-powered drill, then you can put (I think you said) coat hangers up. A great way of taking a break but using time productively. I'll just be working over the weekend, though I'm watching Boys From the Black Stuff tonight (my Easter treat), as I've heard it's a really good and powerful drama. Have a nice Easter weekend, Eska.

STUFF your face with choc and watch some crappy easter telly!

I'm going to try and get out to see clash of the titans at some point, but otherwise catching up with non-PhD work.

Why not combine all the options - do the DIY while eating chocolate and thinking about the PhD piece. Not quite sure how you'd fit in the marking though :p

Yes, maybe do a bit of each - but if I were you I'd spend the weekend doing stuff you want to do - another couple of days of relaxing and doing 'fun' stuff isn't gonna kill our PhDs, but not stopping might!
