In many countries, May Day is synonymous with International Workers'
Day, or Labour Day, which celebrates the social and economic
achievements of the labor movement. Not in the UK...
Here it works different...bank holidays are not fixed days...it is bank
holiday It is bank holiday Good Friday, Easter Monday, the first and
the last Monday on May, the last Monday of August, plus boxing day
(26th of December) and the new year's day (1st of January). Bank
Holidays get their name because they are days when banks are shut
and therefore, traditionally, no other businesses could operate.
So that, today was a day as all the other of the year...! We are not so
unlucky though...we will have bank holiday next Monday...Looking forward to it...!
