All the businesses and shops used to as well, which was nice because it meant that everyone except the emergency services actually had a holiday. A bit like with Sunday trading...that used to be banned too but now a lot of places are open on Sundays, mostly with restricted shopping hours though. Originally they would have all been holy days which I suppose is where the term 'holiday came from.' I hope that helps a bit...I know I always wonder about Labor day... <br /><br />All these little differences are so interesting...debby emadianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12222092755385566586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136149811371784755.post-54890618422775985092012-10-16T03:32:11.001-07:002012-10-16T03:32:11.001-07:00I hope you get one soon Amanda...you deserve it wi...I hope you get one soon Amanda...you deserve it with all your hard work.debby emadianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12222092755385566586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136149811371784755.post-79880269653518256352012-10-16T03:31:42.128-07:002012-10-16T03:31:42.128-07:00I know Karen, I'm so lucky that my husband lov...I know Karen, I'm so lucky that my husband loves cooking too and finds it relaxing to do a bit at the weekend. <br /><br />Thanks for the comment about the photo..luck again, the sky was amazing, perfect light for photographing.debby emadianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12222092755385566586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1136149811371784755.post-45894364277209450262012-10-15T13:25:36.554-07:002012-10-15T13:25:36.554-07:00I am so excited to see your sweater Debby!
