Casual visitors to A Bit About Britain, and the regular reader, are already spoiled. Not only can they find inspiration to explore wonderful places, accompanied by questionably witty or downright curmudgeonly observations (and the occasional interesting fact); there is an abundance of useless information on the website too, including historical timelines and lists of monarchs and prime ministers.
It gets even better. Today, we are delighted to announce the addition of a new page, Britain’s calendar. Ta-dah. Somewhat surprisingly, Britain’s calendar lists selected annual events in Britain, and all public holidays. Like everything else on the site, it will be updated from time to time: so, yes, Little Moaning’s annual fish slapping and wellie dressing festival will eventually sear itself onto the national consciousness, courtesy of the unselfish benevolence of A Bit About Britain.
With a logic that astonishes me, you’ll find Britain’s calendar on the drop-down menu under ‘Britain’. So, if you want to know what’s happening, when, it’s a reasonable source to consult, every time, all year in Britain.
Great idea! And I love this beach shot.
Wish I could claim it!
Brilliant!
Fabulous!
I love your image with four deckchairs and exactly four seagulls 🙂
Is it Brighton? If not this photo has a similar outlook
I don’t know, CP. Every now and again, I use stock photos to illustrate general themes – this one’s come via Pixabay.
That is a fascinating addition to ABAB! Enjoying your marvelous country even as I write. Spent the day at the V&A museum and intend to go back next week. Cheers from the Cranberries.
Fabulous – hope you’re having a really great time!
Deck chairs look like fun in your photo, and are great for reading and drinking. But lying directly on the soft, near-white sand is the test of a real beach. Towel down, sun tan cream on and life is good!
Fantastic! I was just wondering when and where I could go to a good fish slapping!
🙂
Thank you Mike! A great idea.
That’s a good idea, Mike!
Thank you. I shall pin it to my cyber-board.Although at 10,000 miles remove I may not tick off all events.Thanks!
It’s bound to get larger, too!
This is a super cool idea, Mike. I know we would have taken advantage. And probably will in a year or two!
A brave blogger to take on calendar publishing !
Thanks for that – next time I’m heading across I’ll check it out.
Great stuff!
Well thanks very much for this extra service, Mike. Also love that photo. So airy. even the deck chairs look as though they are contemplating flight 🙂
I can’t claim any credit for that particular shot, unfortunately.
A useful addition! Thank you!
A capital idea!
This site has so much useful information. I love the lists of Kings and Queens. Thanks!
