@divegeester saidThere are 11 recognized Federal holidays in the US, most are Mondays, but several of them are always on the day set aside for them, like Independence Day is always the 4th of July, no matter what day of the week that is. In that case, if they fall on a Sat. or Sun., the nearest workday is counted for the holiday as well.
Bank holiday.
How many of these do you have where you live?
How many of these "bank holidays" are there in the UK? And are there other holidays?

@mchill saidSome would count as "bank holidays" if we called them that, since the banks ARE closed.

Not the ATMs, though. They are always open, unless there is a malfunction. I mean, that IS why they exist, to dispense cash when the bank is closed, right?

@divegeester saidFMF would never have started such a ridiculous thread as this one. Why don't you have him give you some lesser ridiculous ideas to use as topics of discussion?

I suppose you are going to tell us next that a permanent bank holiday is called bankruptcy?
