Many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quillan Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Yes it is (Victory Day WW2).Can't answer second bit as I don't live in that neck of the woods but round here many are open in the morning only. I would not assume that your will be the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceni Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Here in N Lot several will be open as normal - 09:00 - 19:00/19:30. During my 6 years here I have noted that the Windmill factor (we never close) is becoming prevalent on public holidays - but I can never remember which ones until the signs go up in the windows.John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Avery Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 Its not a holiday as such, its a day of commemoration. Public offices, banks and a lot of businesses will be closed but looking around town most of the shops and supermarkets will be open as normal.
