In view of the desire of some to take Britain back to the "jolly" days of the 1950's, via the petition to ban Boxing Day shopping, here are a few additional "non essential" services that should also be shut:
- Pubs and bars
- Hotels, restaurants, cafes and takeaways
- Theatres and cinemas
- Concerts
- Boxing Day hunts
- Financial advisers
- TV and radio (or should I say wireless?)
- The internet (non essential parts of it)
- Mobile phone services (landlines work perfectly well for emergencies)
- Taxi/bus services (trains never seem to run then anyway!)
- Flights etc
If you want to shut shops, because they are non essential, then you should also shut the above!

Dear Mr. Frost
ReplyDeleteWe are talking about one day, not about the end of Civilization!
Or maybe you feel that not being able to obtain financial advise on Boxing Day is the end of Civilization?
Personally most of these things I would be quite happy to turn off for two days a year. It might help to stop the contact attacks on the family that working 24 hours 7 days a week without common holidays is.
