remembrance monday - possible new bank holiday
there is a petition running on the no.10 website for a bank holiday monday in november. details below.
http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/remembermonday/
please sign if you think it's a good idea (for all the good that it will do
)
By comparison to many other European Countries, Britain has fewer public holidays and none at all for a period of some three months between the August public holiday and Christmas. Moreover, Britain does not have a "National" day. So what better way to celebrate our Nation than to have a National Remembrance Holiday falling on the second Monday in November each year to reinforce Remembrance Sunday which falls on the second Sunday in November? Such a holiday will serve to emphasise our commemoration of The Fallen who gave their lives to save Britain and also the on-going importance of the survival of our Nation. The National Remembrance Holiday will further serve to break that period between late summer and Christmas when there is currently no public holiday.

i like having bank holidays as it is time that i have to take off and being a committed employee i don't like to take time off normally.
now you mention it though, it would be good to have those days as extra holiday to take when i like. that way i can have the 4 day 'easter weekend at the 'ring' when there is no threat of snow and when it's not jammed packed.
start a petition to scrap all bank holidays then chip - i'll sign up to that as well
