Monkeys Fist 41384 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Took your advice since you're a Dr. ( non-ninja variety). Wish I'd filed my nails first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkeys Fist 41384 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 To answer the op ( now that my hoop has been " Imbruglia'd" ), you either make every Saint's day a national holiday ( George, Andrew, David and Paddy) or you do it according to country- ie England gets a day off on George's day , Scots on Andrew's etc. The problem with both is Norn Iron. I reckon giving them Paddys day off would upset the Unionists. That's assuming NI doesn't have it's own patron saint, please put me right if you know otherwise.

NI already get Paddy's day and the the 12th of July to keep the other lot happy. I'm not against public holidays as such but still don't like Saints days as a concept.

Dr Kenneth Noisewater 0 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 We have less public holidays than anywhere else in europe and no bank holidays from the end of August until Christmas. We should have a Trafalgar Day in October. The added bonus would be that it might piss off the French & Spanish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
