Just checking but it is on some list as 4 Aug 08 but a government one lists it as 25 Aug 08 - I guess we will have to wait till August.
The CWU diary shows 4 August as being the Summer Bank Holiday in Scotland, and 25 August as the
Sumer Bank Holiday in the rest of the UK (except Scotland).

I agree with you there. We get less public holidays than every other country in Europe. :sad:
We should at least get as many as they do in Northern Ireland (two days more).
