I've been reading the online docs, but... code like this somehow ends up

day := current_date + 1;
LOOP
SELECT date+1 INTO day FROM days WHERE date=day OR EXTRACT(dow
FROM day) IN (0,6);
EXIT WHEN NOT FOUND;
timeout := timeout + 86400;
END LOOP;
END; $$ LANGUAGE plpgsql;
It's Saturday at our place, and the "days" table has only one record for
tomorrow's date.
I hope it's been a very very long day for me :-) Thank you for your help.
