What? 0 days, signald? How does that work? Do you work full time?
I actually feel kind of bad writing this, but I get 25 days plus 12 days public holiday. Hurrah for working in the UK public sector. The pay is dreadful but the holidays are great.

well i work almost 60 hours a week, but i work "under the table", i don't know if it means the same thing overseas, but it basically means i work for cash, tax free. So i do get some perks, like not paying taxes, and they let me take off whatever i need for tour, i just don't get paid for any of it. I also don't get paid hourly, i work for a daily salary and tips.

UK festivals just aren't worth the money when you have this kind of alternative!
Yeah iv not been to one since '03 because they just get progressively worse & more expensive
