    Post will resume on the 27th. The 27th is a Bank holiday not a Public Holiday.

    You sure? :eek:
    I work in a bank and my employer told me it was a normal business day.
    Typical, bank employees working on a bank holiday :mad:

    Edit: I've googled this and cannot find any reference to December 27th being a holiday.
    So why the hell are some employees off until January 2nd anyway?

    I work in a bank and it's a holiday for us on the 27th.
    It literally is a 'bank holiday', holiday for banks, not for the rest (ok, for some of the rest).

    The 27th through to the 31st of December are normal working days (excusing Saturdays and Sundays). Americans frequently work those days and all stock exchanges and financial markets will be trading from the 27th onwards.

    We're lucky here in Ireland that it's a custom for the majority of us to get holidays into the New Year.

    I'm also working on the 27th. It isn't a Bank Holiday either. If it was, I wouldn't be working it as I only work 2 in the year.
