Will the 4 days not delivering mean a busy week after or a busy week before the break?

Don't worry about it, you'll have had plenty of practice at busy weeks by then.

In scotland we get fecked out of a Bank Holiday (2nd) cos its not an English Bank Holiday.

England and Wales 2021
Saturday 25 December Christmas Day No collections or deliveries
Sunday 26 December Boxing Day No collections or deliveries
Monday 27 December Due to Christmas Day on Saturday No collections or deliveries
Tuesday 28 December Due to Boxing Day on Sunday No collections or deliveries

Can't find any for 2022 yet. but the Jan 2nd new year day for Scotland should be honoured looking at the above. So Scotland should be off till Wednesday the 5th I hope.

We always get the substitute days off when xmas / Boxing day fall on a weekend like England & Wales. But not for Jan 2.

Says no collections or deliveries on Bank Holidays but there always are apart from 25th & 1st Jan. Your average postie is off. The in crowd do special collections (sweep of the pillarboxes / post offices) and since covid started, covid deliveries. They also did covid collections before they lost the contract.
