From memory, Bank Holidays don't make much difference. Tuesday is Like a Monday and Wed/Thurs are slightly heavier.
I figure that most companies don't post During the Bank Holiday so mail volumes are just down by half a day for that week.

It'll probably be real busy with Amazon and any others that can post on a Sunday into the network.

it should be, monday hours today & tuesday tomorrow.
The agreement is like this so we still get our tuesday hours on a bank holiday week.
