BTW, what is a "bank holiday?" I know in my case, at the shipping company I work for, we are going through our year end closing and until Fiscal 2007 starts up, I'll have Thursday and Friday off next week so I'll have a four day vacation along with a three day weekend now.

A public holiday. Though certain people in the retail trade and of course essential/emergency industries plus of course catering still have to work. They normally get extra pay though for working on that day unless their contract of employment is worded cleverly and weekends and public holidays are part of their normal working hours.

All offices and factories though unless it unsafe to turn the machinery off will not be working on Monday.
