Happy Monday predicted
Today is being hailed ‘Happy Monday’ by psychologists as they claim most people would have booked their summer holiday over the weekend.
Many of us have received the first pay cheque of the year and now have a holiday to look forward to, reports the Daily Mail.
Dr David Holmes, a senior psychologist at Manchester Metropolitan University, said: "We all go in to work on that Monday, 30 January, with renewed vigour.
"We are buoyed by the excitement of having money in the bank again and having one of the major family events of the year – the annual summer holiday – to look forward to. This is a day when we feel particularly happy."
He added that this weekend had been predicted to be the busiest of the year for travel agents.
Are you having a ‘Happy Monday’? Did bookings peak at the weekend as predicted?
