        Speak for youself, this year I'm clocking 39 days (Holiday carry overs and days in lieu) :)

        All right, you guys, I got eight crates of Ipecac from Mort. All on my tab. Now, whoever goes the longest without puking gets the last piece of pie in the fridge.

            25+8 like the rest of us, or 33 and then the 8 bank holidays on top? It still not enough for me. Half-term we-re going over to Hunland for the week [5 days] and I'll take my normal 3 weeks in August [15]. Now I only have one week left. :sigh:


            Panic, Chaos, Destruction. My work here is done.

                It does not depend on how many official non-working days you have but rather on how many your boss allows you to take.

                Me, I'm dishonest. And a dishonest man you can always trust to be dishonest.

                  I'll give it a good go, no doubt there'll be carry overs for next year.

                      No, Holidays are a legal entitlement. In law you are entitled to 8 public holidays plus 20 days at your discretion, (Although Xmas usually accounts for 3-4 of them). However, I get 8 + 25 days because I negotiated it.

                          She is 61 in May and refuses to retire, but is looking to reduce her burden from 5 days to 4 days a week.

                              Very cool. Last time I tried negotiating, I ended up working Saturday and Sunday and got just one day compensatory off in lieu - loosing an entire holiday. :(

                                You need to hire a negotiator! I am very cheap, just fly me in, put me up in a 5 star hotel and I can negotiate a better pay deal and a few extra days holiday. :)
