Bank holidays are coming! And there’s a trick to making the most of them… but remember to advise us so that we can continue to organise viewings on your behalf

You may be starting to think about all those bank holidays ahead of us, excited at the prospect of spending time with family, and enjoying a rest, with seaside and an ice cream an exciting idea if we continue to enjoy some warmth.
 
But before you make your plans, you might want to think tactfully about how to make the most of your holidays this year.
 
By planning carefully, and booking off the right days, you could more than double your time off during the year – that’s a lot of holidays, which can only lead to a relaxed and carefree 2019 spent with loved ones!
 
Here's how it works:
 
Easter 2019 - Take 8 days off for a 16-day holiday
Book off: 15th – 18th April & 23rd – 26th April
Bank holidays: 19th & 22nd April
Your holiday: 13th – 28th April
 
Early May bank holiday - Take 4 days off for a 9-day holiday
Book off: 7th – 10th May
Bank holidays: 6th May
Your holiday: 4th – 12th May
 
Late May bank holiday - Take 4 days off for a 9-day holiday
Book off: 28th – 31st May
Bank holidays: 27th May
Your holiday: 25th May – 2nd June
 
August bank holiday  - Take 4 days off for a 9-day holiday
Book off: 27th – 30th August
Bank holidays: 26th August
Your holiday: 24th August – 1st September
 
Christmas - Take 5 days off for a 12-day holiday
Book off: 23rd, 24th, 27th, 30th & 31st December
Bank holidays: 25th, 26th December & 1st January

Make sure you arrive at work early tomorrow to book off the days, before your colleagues figure out the same trick!
