It's a national holiday in Belgium over 99% of shops including ALL supermarkets and DIY stores are closed on national holidays.

It's great as most companies also close on the Friday giving a long weekend :)

Is it the same in the UK anyone else off?

To be honest I had to look it up in wiki to see why I'm off work. :(
 
Nope, no time off here.

TBH, they'll be trying to ban easter and cancelling its associated holiday over here before long anyway. :arollingoftheeyes:

Have a good one all the same *slightly jealous you have time off and I don't*. :)
