the corner office

Back in South Africa, a public holiday on a Saturday means sorry-for-youuu, you don't get the Monday off. I'd never thought much about it UK-wise and since Boxing Day was on Saturday, I had it in my mind that I'd be off to work today. Thankfully we had family around yesterday and someone mentioned 'the bank holiday tomorrow', else I'd have felt like a right nana pitching up at the office this morning.
