The Royal Wedding re-opens debate about too many bank holidays at once
The fact that the Royal Wedding between Prince William and Catherine Middleton is on a Friday (26 April) and it is also a national holiday, has re-opened the debate about moving some of our public holidays - because this time of year is full of them.
One proposal is to scrap May Day and have a new' public holiday between the August bank holiday and Christmas.
October is being considered so as to mark the Battle of Trafalgar but other suggestions are coming forward, such as making St George's Day a public holiday.
Who was this George anyway
Unfortunately St George's Day is on 23 April, so this doesn't really ease the congestion' and surveys have also shown that people don't really have a clue about St George anyway.
According to MySpace, people liked the idea of a day off, but would prefer Stephen Fry to be the patron saint of England. Stephen Fry Day - I don't think so.
Pick a holiday, any holiday
So who or what should we celebrate, should we have more religious days, should we have some war celebrations?
D-Day - 6 June might be ok, as perhaps would Victory in Europe Day (VE Day) but this is again would be in the congestion period 8 May.
English Civil War Day' might be interesting. On the 3 September the Civil War ended at the Battle of Worcester. It could even keep the Royal's on their toes but a celebration involving Oliver Cromwell won't go down well with many.
Stop the world I want to get off
Pleasing everybody would be nearly impossible, so can I suggest a World Cease-fire Day'. A day when all wars or conflicts stop for 24 hours football matches are played between the ones who are doing all the fighting perhaps Paul McCartney can organise it.
Or we could simply scrap five of the current public holidays, leaving just Christmas Day, Boxing Day and New Year's Day and all enjoy five full weeks of holiday a year instead of four.
