    Yep. I once met a salesman whose sales area was in a Catholic Canton but head office was in Zurich. On Protestant holidays there was nobody to supply technical information or take orders, so he got both sets of hols.

    Your local shops will probably be full of folks from other Cantons who have the day off.

    In the office today on my own.

    Employer PAYE paperwork here (P11D/P60/P14/P35).

    I've had to put up with queencook giving me tulip for being on the computer all day too.

    Of course, but Thursday is Fronleichnam which means Friday is a day off so up to Düsseldorf to visit 'longest bar in the world' which is actually just 260 pubs, bars and clubs very close to each other...
