CCJ and bailiff letter

Last year I was issued with a warrant of control for a CCJ I currently have, I applied via a N45 to postpone the warrant and pay by installments. I have stupidly missed a couple of months payments by mistake (I have a few debts with companies and thought I had been paying the correct one for this) today I have received a bailiff letter giving me 24 hours to pay via the court office before they come to my home.

A few questions I have.....

1) the letter was dated 17/1/19 however postmark was yesterday 18/1/19 and I received it today would it be safe to assume the 24 hours would give me until Monday/Tuesday next week? The court is closed so I have been unable to ring or go in to make payment.

2) I am only in a position to pay on Tuesday has anyone had experience with court bailiffs and if they are reasonable and possibly give me until then?

Thanks in advance!
