Lindercles 0 #15 May 25, 2006 The best explanation I can find is that in 1971 they passed the Banking and Financial Dealings Act of 1971 which had a stipulation for a certain number of holidays. And then on top of that the Queen declares a certain number more every year. All for no particular reason. Pretty sweet. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, but at least those days are nominally in celebration/memoriam of a person or event. "Bank Holidays" seem to be for no other reason than to have a holiday. Not that there's anything wrong with that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
