I was under the impression that we were allowed only 14 days Leave to be taken in the normal (unhappily administered) fashion. The remainder were, or are, to be allocated as some of our 4 days off; the total number of A/L days to remain the same. The discussion is about how and when we get them. If that is true (repeat 'If') then assuming we keep the £60 per day for each A/L then we won't be losing £840.
The fact is I simply don't know what the situation is, which is the main complaint. Correct me if I am wrong and take no offence.
