Oh I see. Dreaming of days off eh?
Last year brought many memorable moments (good and bad) and gave us a well-earned extra break, with King Charles III’s coronation ceremony which took place at Westminster Abbey in May.
That same month, people also had the joys of the spring bank holiday, which blossomed its way through the UK and gave many some extra time off.
And of course, we ended the year with another much-needed break as Christmas and Boxing Day came knocking on our door once more.
As for 2024, the UK is set to many major sporting events and music festivals including the Six Nations Army, London Marathon, Women’s FA Cup Final and Edinburgh Festival Fringe.
