In Scotland, bank holidays generally apply only to banks and
some financial and commercial offices, whereas in England and Ireland, they are
usually public holidays. Christmas Day and New Years Day are of course usually
taken by everyone. Scottish towns and cities normally have a spring and autumn
holiday and while the dates of these holidays vary from year to year and
sometimes place to place, they are always on a Monday.
