“As we all know our country isn't the best in the world at giving Bank Holidays”

Really? We get 7 in a year which I think is a fair amount tbh

Although I’d obviously love more

Wow

They should have one for Eid just to pis off the EDL.

I wonder if they can back-date the bank holiday to 1966. In which case they owe me a day off.

St George’s day should be one

Ireland has 9 bh

If a bank holiday is a day where people don't work then Liverpool have 365

We have 14 bank holidays here, including Portugal Day, Liberty Day, Independence Day and Restoration of Independence Day.

Any excuse, basically

In seriousness, people work far too hard in the UK only to spend money on shytte that doesn't make them any happier.

The best thing I ever did was take a massive (and I mean massive) pay cut to move from a 50 hour week to a 30 hour week.

I travel a lot. I have been to Gambia and Budapest this year, and plan on going to Morocco, Cuba and Brazil in December. I left my last job because of travelling.

So why so miserable then ? my point is, not all of us work just to pay bills and have miserable lives.

Did I say I am miserable? In London, which is where i live, most people complain that all they do is work and pay bills. I was also in this circle, until I started to travel.

Yeh that's people that are never content and do nothing with their lives. I travel to with my partner. I currently don't have any kids and love the freedom. Just recently got back from 3 week trip to Asia

Do you do it full time? I know it is a big thing now with Instagram bloggers.

No not full time mate. Me and my partner both work full time and own our own home so we got responsibilities, but we live for our travels. We love travelling to different countries and seeing different cultures. Gives you such a fantastic knowledge of life in general when you travel and see such amazing countries.

Public holidays mean diddly squat to me, but I fully appreciate the need why there is as real need for more of them.

The Anglo-Saxon culture has created an awful relationship between the proles and their masters. Probably the worst in the 'developed' world.

Personally got out in 1993, sold up, downsized (before it was fashionable). Become mortgage & responsibility free and as art, music and meeting the human multitude is alI I love, that's what I do.

Done my bit. Life is for living. 'uck slavery.
