Britain doesn't have a generous amount of Bank and Public Holidays (normally only 8 per year - for further information go
here) - but the these two weeks are full of them. Last Friday was the public holiday for Good Friday. Tomorrow is a Bank Holiday for Easter Monday. Friday has been declared a 'special bank holiday' for the Royal Wedding. Monday 2nd May is the Early May Bank Holiday. Then it is back to normal work weeks (until the Spring Bank Holiday on 30th May!).
The relevant piece of legislation is the
Banking and Financial Dealings Act 1971
