It's always March 1st, it's counting back from Christmas so February doesn't get impacted either way.

Yep!
This forum definitely brings out the countdown and number crunchers. Think myself, yourself and freshpopcorn are on a slightly different level though ☺️

Once you hit March there's something between Easter and the Bank Holidays you sort of zoom into the 100's.
Then there's the Summer stretch but double digits are at the end of it.

It genuinely feels like about 5 weeks ago we were saying it's double digit day.
