I imagine that the bank holiday for the 1st will be carried over to the Tuesday for us in Scotland so we'd get the 2nd and 3rd off, and in England the bank holiday for the first will be carried over to the 2nd.

Usually this site - https://personal.help.royalmail.com/app ... c-holidays" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; - has the info but it doesn't have anything beyond the Christmas bank holidays up yet.

On New Year’s Day there will be no deliveries or collections. In Scotland, Tuesday, January 3 is also a bank holiday so there will be no deliveries or collections north of the border.

I take it you are hoping for the extra days to recover from the Hogmanay game celebrations
