Is Friday 6th April a Royal Mail bank holiday in Scotland?

Post by cyberheater »

Looking at the DirectGov website. It says that we should have 6th April off in Scotland.
My DO say's otherwise.

We got the 2nd January off, so we don't get Friday.
Vote no on the "Agreement"

It says on the directgov website that

"There are seven permanent bank holidays across the whole of Scotland. Christmas Day and Good Friday are public holidays."
