Now, Bank holiday are regarded as a joke by shopkeepers to make extra money.

This week for example, we have Two Bank Holidays to celebrate the Queen's reign on the throne, can we find a shop, yes its no longer bank holidays as we know it - which is a great shame.

You might as well scrap them, as they are pointless.
