It's not looking good for me I'm sad to say Currently I won't be able to take the time off work I need a little more notice with things like this because of the holiday booking system used at my work. You see the month of July is fully booked out for holiday, most likely the parents who take their kids on holiday when the schools are out so there are no more hours to give out.

Sometimes it is possible for me to get holidays at a month or twos notice but usually in the quieter months.
