If you are working today and paid a yearly salary then today you're working for nothing! According to the BBC website:

There are campaigns for 29 February to become a bank holiday.... the
average salaried person loses £113

    That's another £113 I've saved by being retired. Thanks, Corners.

    Not if you get a workplace pension, as they don't give you any more for the extra day. However, the state pension I think is paid every 28 days, so you are paid, if you qualify.

    Must agree; as I was just thinking the same thing whilst having my tea and had logged on to post in the same manner.

    Beaten to the draw again Frown.

    thanks for the replies, if you're daily or hourly paid you made an extra day's pay.
