You'll probably come here faster if I tell you that Christmas holidays (for schools, at least) go from ~21st December to ~8 January Of course, lots of people are unemployed and have much longer holidays.
Wow, a free day because a holiday was on a sunday, here it's just "bad luck for you, come to work." At least I have a job, that counts for something.

And actually I will be in Spain for a few days half november. To practice my first spanish lessons and see the Sagrada familia. Oh no, don't let the firmware be released then....

In the Netherlands (the south) it's a holiday, but never a day off work.
