Don't think so, we do pretty well here 'down under with our Public Holidays.

We don't get May Day, but we get Labor Day where we commemorate the workers who fought and gained the 8 Hour Day.

As the saying goes, 8 Hours work, 8 hours play and 8 'Bob' a day where Bob meant shillings. Shillings is was our gift from the British as well as Pounds and Pence, but you would remember that, being in UK. Will you go back to that after Brexit ????

Always nice to hear from one of the colonies..........

We are having a discussion [in government] at the moment on whether or not to get rid of the 1 and 2 pence coins. We will still keep the pound but in a decimal system, which is after all the Roman system as well. What would blow people away is if we brought back chain, pole, perch, rod and rood measurements.

OOOOHHHHHH, Another Tiger, I have 11 K & C Tigers [do not like the rest], can you have too many Tigers? Never would be my answer, but then it is a D-Day commemoration as opposed to a Normandy one.......

A new edition of the Wittmann Tiger might be good, with a new Ekins Sherman Firefly or some British tanks, vehicles and 6llB guns for the Battle of Villers-Bocage............
