Most of us love a bank holiday and there are eight every year. There are a number which come on certain dates - such as Christmas Day being on December 25, and New Year's Day which is on January 1.
However these can sometimes end up being switched if the day of the bank holiday falls on a weekend. So this year the Christmas Day bank holiday is on Tuesday, December 27 - Monday, December 26 is already a bank holiday as it is Boxing Day. Likewise the bank holiday for January 1 has moved to Monday, January 2, according to Yorkshire Live.
But what about the other days off which most people look forward to. There is additional time off for Easter when both Good Friday and Easter Monday are bank holidays.
