So we've celebrated, and celebrated some more, received kings and queens, cut thousands of red ribbons, danced and sang, blocked traffic, unblocked traffic, and the celebrations continue. But where is our holiday?
.
I don't know exactly when the 40th National Day celebrations will end (or will they continue for a year?) but rumor has it that next Tuesday and Wednesday will be a National Holiday. As in the 7th and 8th. Some sources say it'll be a three day holiday (6th-8th).
.
Anyone out there with some useful information to share? :)
I've heard the same rumours, but I don't believe anything until it's formally announced :)
ReplyDeleteUgh. I mean, for many people holiday means going away for a mini-vacation! Don't we have the right to plan our holidays IN ADVANCE? One of the more annoying aspects of His Majesty's office.
ReplyDeleteYes I agree with you Nadia!! as a Dhofari living in muscat I suffer alot with these rumours. They have to announce these things as soon as possible.
ReplyDeleteAny update as in 6,7,8 or 7 and 8
ReplyDeleteI can't help thinking of 'Days of future passed: This day will last
ReplyDeletea thousand years if you want it to.....'
