As a matter of interest, how many offices work 1 in 6 , 1 in 4, do any still have the holy grail of the 9 day fortnight?

We have half the office on 1 in 4 and the other on 9day fortnights.
What surprised me is my brothers office have only just implemented 9day fortnights in the last few months.
Never thought that would happen.
