Like it actually matters to make that correction ???

However, if you've got nothing to do on your day off I suppose I can understand it ;)

but, FYI it actually makes no difference.

Día del Trabajo (Labour Day)
public holiday in Spain

source : http://calendar.retira.eu/public-holidays/spain/2012/ :D
another source : http://www.bicentenario.gob.mx/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=918:01-de-mayo-dia-del-trabajo-&catid=118:mayo&Itemid=217

There are, however plenty of sources for both spellings / versions plus others, so it's not really of mass importance in the grand scheme of things...

Long live the pedants. :lol: :bolt:

Pffft.

Thanks all! I did google the bank holidays but wanted to confirm as some seem to be regional rather than National! :)

12 October Spain day.... not dia de España ?

serious question here ?

[KirstyJay]

Probably the person that wrote the list didn't translate it. :)

[Suej]

Doh! lets just call it Labour day!:D

[Malteser Monkey]

Doh! lets just call it Labour day!:D

I wonder how many women will give birth today :D

just a random thought

[KirstyJay]

Doh! lets just call it Labour day!:D
Or we could call it Labor Day if we wanted to use the American English spelling... ;) :D

If you often shop in Mercadona, you can see on their board listed the days when they are closed. That is always a great reminder for bank holidays....I just never remember them....
