i like having bank holidays as it is time that i have to take off and being a committed employee i don't like to take time off normally.

now you mention it though, it would be good to have those days as extra holiday to take when i like. that way i can have the 4 day 'easter weekend at the 'ring' when there is no threat of snow and when it's not jammed packed.

start a petition to scrap all bank holidays then chip - i'll sign up to that as well
