I agree with Ray Fletcher that we need another bank holiday in Britain (Letters, May 5). However, I'm sure we don't need it in July.

We already have bank holidays in May and August and then most, if not all of us, get a summer break of at least two weeks.

We need an extra holiday midway between Christmas and Easter to break up the long gap. The end of February would be fine. I'm sure we'd manage to enjoy the break regardless of the weather.
