Date: 2009-09-04 07:09 pm (UTC)In England we have Christmas Day and Boxing Day; New years Day, Good Friday and Easter Monday; the first and the last Mondays in May and the last Monday in August. All are Bank Holidays - in other words -a day off work. When I was a kid, everything was shut - but with extended trading etc, now it only seems to be Banks etc that are closed.

May 30 * Memorial Day
July 4 Independence Day
September * Labor Day
October 12 * Columbus Day

Many of these holidays are not honored by business or shops. Sadly.
