That's cause the Scottish banks now make their staff take English bank holidays. But, I believe, they used to be bank holidays up here and are still referred to as such by non-bankers.
The only time this has annoyed me was when I had to work on Jan 2nd and couldn't get to work my usual way cause Lothian Buses were working public holiday schedule. And the bloody branches were mostly closed but they still made head office staff come in. But I did no work that day, cause I'm such a rebel.
BTW, glancing at your diary, I suspect we work for the same place :)
