I am going to Edmonton in summer. awaiting the LMO as we speak
I know I get 4 weeks plus the BH but that means 10 weeks less than in the uk. Also I will have to go full time as opposed to the part time I do now. But the better lifestyle has to be worth it. I travel upto 90 mins each morning and only work a 5 hour day. The travelling there and back equates to a full time job by the end of the week so I might as well get paid for it.

JO

Eh? You get 14 weeks holiday now with the NHS? That can't we right. Six or so (incl. B/H) but never 14.
