Let’s be honest, half of us assume every day from Good Friday to Easter Monday is a freebie. You get Friday off, Monday off, so surely Saturday must be a holiday too, right? Wrong. It’s like expecting a fourth pizza slice when you ordered a three-slice deal—disappointing, but you can’t really complain.
I remember one year, I set my alarm for 9 AM on Easter Saturday, ready for a lazy morning. My mate texted, “Mate, it’s a bank holiday, you’re wasting the day.” So I turned off the alarm, slept in, and woke up at 10:30 to realise I had missed the only pharmacy open for miles. Classic.
