The Bank Holiday is a holiday which would normally be a working day, in this case a Monday, and the BH weekend is the weekend around it, defined like any other weekend, depending on how long are your weekends. For most, I'm sure this BH weekend would be at least Fri evening to all day Monday inc., i.e. 27-30 August.

Strike is, I believe, scheduled for one 24hr period in the four days Fri-Mon.

So, if this isn't too much of an existential question, what constitutes a weekend? Thanks .
