Reminder Clocks back and public holiday tomorrow

Just to remind you that the clocks go BACK 1 hour at 4am tomorrow morning AND tomorrow is a public holiday ‘Ochi Day’

Sunday, October 28 ‘Ochi day’
This is celebrated throughout Greece and Cyprus as Ochi Day (No Day). On the 28th of October 1940 when the then Greek leader Ioannis Metaxas, was presented with an ultimatum by the Italians to let Axis forces enter Greece or face war .Ioannis Metaxas allegedly replied with a single word to the ultimatum OCHI which is the Greek word for NO.

As "Ochi" day is a public holiday tomorrow, Sunday, does this mean most will not be working
on Monday, as Sunday is a day off for most anyways?
