Just a reminder Friday May 8th is a Bank Holiday this year
Just a reminder Friday May 8th is a Bank Holiday this year.
I nearly got caught out as my House Calendar says it is on Monday 4th!

Re: Just a reminder Friday May 8th is a Bank Holiday this year
As I've been furloughed until July, I get Easter and the 2 bank holidays in May back, roughtly 32 hours, plus the 44 hours for my summer holiday which I'll have to cancel.
So 76 hours back.

Your work isn't paying your full monthly wages are they? A few people at my work who have been furloughed get their normal monthly wages, a bank holiday is a bank holiday though so they would normally get paid for that anyway.

Nope I'm only getting 80%, my company won't make up the shortfall.

Yeah, they only moved it June last year, when many calendars and stuff had already been printed.
In the end, it was all for nothing really, due to CV19.

Re: Just a reminder Friday May 8th is a Bank Holiday this year
I barely know what day of the week it is at the moment. Bank holidays will just wash right over me regardless of when they happen.

Rain predicted for Monday though, perhaps no one informed the weatherman the holiday moved.

Re: Just a reminder Friday May 8th is a Bank Holiday this year
Why did they move it? And is it now always going to be the first Friday in May as opposed to Monday?

It is to celebrate 75 years since VE day. AFAIK it's just this year.

Sadly this is another event that's been a victim of the pandemic..
