I just like it as it means you don't have the Easter bank holidays followed in quick succession by the May bank holiday.

I always think it is odd we have so many bank holidays when it is often cold and wet and then nothing from the end of May until the end of August.

But June is usually mild and damp and July a bit variable.  People seem to always forget that August and September are the best summer months here.

March comes in like a stoat and goes out like a badger.

Not so much August, but deffo September over the last 20 years has often been the best.
