And it served me well, home in cornwall posted to leeming and lossie, 2 days extra on every leave application. Leeming calculated the train time from Northallerton to my home train station and said, no dice it is 7hrs and 40 mins, I countered with "I have to get to and from said station at each end, add in the bus times please" they said ok, have two extra days.

How about trying this one on the Boss......
30 days leave each year.
Add in the 15 days carry over (we all have that).
Add on the extra days for Bank Holidays/Grants etc - usually 7 days.
Total: 52 days.
take off every Monday for a year. Of course, you take every Friday afternoon as well (as does the rest of the RAF) and you are left with just a 3.5 day week for a whole year!
Why not enter it into JPA today and see what happens..........

I don't need any extra leave - I can't take enough of my own as it is. In Feb 2008, I ended up having my leave "managed" from above and only worked Sat & Sun for a month in order to use up my leave.
It all started in Aug 2007 when 2 people were posted out within a week of each other, and leave became impossible to take. Once they realised that I wasn't able to take 35 days (I'd only had a fortnight off between April and August) before the end of leave year, they panicked. I reckon I lost about 10 days (you can't tell now as they keep adding extra days for standdowns & PHs - at one point my leave balance was 65!!)
That said, my time off in May 2008 was 96hrs!!
