    No, 4th January is Tuesday and in England business reverts to normal (it's only a holiday in Scotland).

    It seems that the Clampetts don't need to buy the house. They seem to have the run of it just now. :D

    Daughter'll turn up soon, 8 months pregnant, left her !!!!less bf and will move into the camper.

    Middle of the night, bf will turn up, banging on the door wanting to see his bird. Then he'll be camping on the lawn, refusing to move until she speaks to him.

    Tea, tears and tantrums will be the order of the day inside the house.... while the bf camping destroys the various landscaping in the front garden and in being let in for the loo will tread doggy doo into the hall/stairs carpet, that Mrs C will now decide isn't a good colour of carpet at all - and will insist on a discount, then will invite at least a dozen carpet salesmen to the house with sample books.
