    The way I see it Jan has a bank holiday - New Years and the first week of Jan is still Christmas.

    March gets Paddy's Day, April usually gets Easter, May & June have bank holidays.... so Feb needs some loving too haha.

    I usually take a few days in February to cover the kids mid term break from school. Unlikely they'll even be in school for that this year so reckon I'll just keep working through in the hope that restrictions will be lifted a tad for the spring/summer & latter half of the year. Am gonna have to save a few days for Christmas as well because of the way it falls this year. Looking at needing 6 days leave to cover 2 weeks off this time round.

    I'm planning on taking 5 for Christmas and working one day in the middle again to break up the 2 weeks.

    I'll probably do the same, ideally if we're back to normal I'll go in on the 23rd as thats the day we break up for Christmas & go out for lunch & a few beers :)

    i.e. not really a days work at all!

    As Valentine's Day is on a Sunday this year, that means we will have a 4 day weekend once we pass this into law. :D

    If we're signing stuff into law, I nominate a 4 day working week, Fridays really should be the weekend don't you think?
