Public Holidays 2010
A note on Christmas 2010
Please note that there are two (2) days holiday for Christmas Day 2010 and New Year's Day 2011 respectively. This phenomenon occurs approximately every 7 years when both Christmas Day and New Year's Day fall on a Saturday. This is because the U.S. observes the respective public holiday on the preceding Friday, whereas the United Kingdom always observes the day on the following Monday. This situation most recently occurred over the 2004/2005 period.
