A remark: that is unusual. Normally this would be a "logical" test: is
yesterday a workholiday or not, returning True or False accordingly.
Returning None will "test" as false, but it is not a normal value for
false situations.
What does your function return when neither situation applies?

This is a text only list, and the list software discards most, if not
all, attachments. Your sample file is not present in the email I
received.
Please paste the contents of gwd.py directly into your email (which
itself should be a _reply_ to this email or your original email). Then
we can see your code.
