Hi there, is there anyway from the settings area or maybe some extension where one can block off bookings such as bank holidays and for example days like St. Patricks day. I know I could create a category for example and put all holidays into that category but the issue is when you create a recurring event you need to say “this happens every day except patricks day and a bank holiday” and that is very hard to setup really. So it would be good if the patricks day and bank holidays were blocked off so to speak or something like this if im making sense? <\/p>\n

Any help would be much appreciated.
