It always happens when Christmas Day falls on a Saturday.

Be the same next week too because the New Year "Bank Holiday" will be carried over.

What difference does it make unless you want to contact someone in the Civil Service? All shops are open and few of us actually ever want to go into a bank anyway.

Does that mean that both yesterday and today are bank holidays or did nick get the dates mixed up? I only had enough holiday accrued to cover the bank holidays so I may be less out of pocket than I thought.
