Well, tied with a few other states for highest number. And we have 12, compared to the lowest states which have 11. But I'm taking it as a win!

There are so few at this time of year though, it's a long cold gap.

I'd be willing to sacrifice a public holiday if it meant they were more evenly distributed through the year. I really appreciated that public holiday we got on 22 Sept last year for Queen's Elizabeth - it's a big gap between June and November otherwise.
