I lived in Arizona for many years.
@Amisja I never knew that. Too bad we did not meet earlier. I lived in San Diego from 1982 to 2005
@mooredolezal I was there for much of that time.
@Amisja too bad we did not meet way back when!
@mooredolezal Yeah
@Amisja well my next international trip will probably be to the UK so if we keep in touch we will meet someday!
No holiday here in the US. I have two doctors' appointments today. With any luck, I will have a new insulin pump. Gin later on tonight. Why is your day off called a bank holiday?

Because the banks close and hence no business can take place, consequently everything shuts. Having been a ward based clinical practitioner for most of my working life, bankers and Christmas etc, were just another day. Even weekends are a new adventure for me!
Three day weekend in the US. Memorial Day is the traditional start of the summer.

Only Britain has two public holidays in May. Enjoy it whilst we slave away!

Do you take the following weekend? Ireland does.
Does ye good
@Marionville Spain has sufficient holidays without adding more. The next big event is "noche de san Juan", on June 23, for St John the baptist.
