Nothing to do with the staff wanting days off. Humankind has not woven the web of life. We are but one thread within it. Whatever we do to the web, we do to ourselves. All things are bound together. All things connect. ~Chief Seattle

It just isn't worth the cost to keep them open paying what amounts to treble time, compared to the usage. Same between Christmas and New Year when at least they keep West Kirby and Europa open for people who want to swim. See you in cyberspace!
