Im not actually working, but I am on call, and almost guaranteed to be called out for at least 4 hours on Xmas Day. To add insult to injury, Im only on time and a half, with no time in leiu as Christmas Day falls on a Saturday, and is therefore not classed as a bank holiday BOOOOOO!!  |

Thankfully I have xmas day, boxing day and the two bank holidays off after that, back to work for 3 days (which it'll be dead as no one sends parcels between xmas and new year) and then off on new years day to the bank holiday monday!
I think they should close all airports on christmas day, everyone should have arrived home to see their family by then!
