    Good news my manager just randomly said to me she will sort my hoidlays out.

    as before that I was talking to other girl, before manager came back she could not sort it, so she ask manager who said May have to put in a hat

    anyway later in day manager said she will sort it out.
    So what happened?
    Did she sort  out a hat and names on pieces of paper?
    Who took the names out?  Who witnessed?
    Have you got the holiday?  Or nobody got the holiday so that all are equally annoyed?
    Nothing she just said she will sort it leave it with her.
    so all three will get it off

    didnt bother questions her

    The issue is it's not solved until it's confimed who is off and who is not (if applies).

    How long are you prepared to wait to confirm?

    I doubt that "she will sort it" means that all three will get their holidays - could be that nobody gets time off.

    Hopefully (for the OP) I'm mistaken.

    She said she will book the two days off beetween the bank hoildays for me, the one before and one after in April.

    so there less likely to schedule me to work bank hoilday 

    but bank hoildays she can’t do for anyone now closer to time and if they ask me to work saying I’m going away then which is true.

    just to add to all this she is being made redundant next year, so even if there are any problems no longer her problem
