The SoreStore guide to Bank Holidays

leave a comment »

While SoreStore staff work on Bank Holidays, a lot of Britain’s infrastructure doesn’t. This isn’t only trains and tubes (forget trying to go anywhere by public transport on a Bank Holiday), it also means couriers and Royal Mail.

So, if you order something from us on a Bank Holiday, even if you choose “Next Working Day” delivery, you’re not going to get it the next day. Just can’t happen.

At Easter it’s even worse: you have two Bank Holidays straddling the Easter weekend*. So, any orders received by us from about 2 o’clock on Maundy Thursday, can’t get into the Royal Mail system until the following Tuesday. With an earliest possible arrival day on your doormat of Wednesday.

Confused? We’re not, and we hope you’re not either.

*in England. Scotland is different again.
