And Mondays too!

And maybe we should let the Welsh have St. David's?

Interesting how they lump England and Wales together - assume things are different in Scotland? They obviously have managed devolution better.

We do need more public holidays and all the national days, the four nations of the UK, should be public holidays

Re: St Georges Day

Taffies are the people who are from taffland.

And no, you don't get one country in the UK having a saint's day off without the other 3 having the same privilege.

Why? Shoudn't Saints days belong to those whom they should belong to...in other words those followers of the religion that these people are Saints of? I agree with Gogogo, any more holidays we have need to be universal. What would be really nice is if we could have a world day off

Re: St Georges Day

While we are at it how about getting the queens "official" birthday as a bank holiday? She is our queen just as much as the Aussies, Kiwis, and Kanuks who all take a day off to celebrate their monarchy. I guess as the Civil Service already get the day they can't be bothered to push legislation that will grant it to all.

Re: St Georges Day

Can we have more bank holidays that are not lumped in around May day and Spring bank holiday.It so messes up the school term around that point.

I reckon sometime between August and Crimbo OR sometime between spring Bank holiday and August.

What ever happens they would be tacked onto school holidays...
