Is it Burnley holidays this week or next week? I can't remember if they are before ours or if their second week is the same as our 1st week
 
Ours are usually around the 19th so that will make Burnleys 1st week starts next week.
Thanks

Think burnley are on holiday now, its raining :D
 
it must be the first week of burnley holidays, this monday and next monday my usual meeting in burnley has been cancelled because its the holidays.the rain is normal therefore lol
 
I always thought Burnley were a full fortnight before Accy but I'm even confused about when Accy hols are this year because the schools are doing something weird and Busman doesn't get normal holidays.

Anyone from Burnley can confirm the dates?
all i can say is the meeting i go to on monday nights is run by burnley people in a burnley club and they cancelled the thing for the monday of this week and next cos its burnley holidays,that'll do for me.
 
In days of old Burnley holidays always started on the 1st Saturday in July. Accrington and Blackburn holiday fortnight commenced on the 3rd Saturday in July.

Yep.... It is Burnley hols this week and next week. My mates kids are off school for their hols and they attend a Burnley school..:D
 
I didn't know anybody still had Wakes Week, where all the mills, etc, stopped for a week, and Blackpool was overrun with ladies in floral frocks and men with knotted hankies. I'm glad to see something still survives.

The majority of schools in Hyndburn are actually open the first week of Accrington Holidays. I know the school i work in do not finish until the Monday 18th July and my daughters school is Wednesday 20th July. How many children will be in school that week is debatable. My daugher is missing the last couple of days due to a mix up with holiday dates.
