Have you been saying “we really need to catch up soon” to family members for months now? Maybe even years? It happens to the best of us. Life gets busy, weekends fill up quickly and before you know it another season has passed without that long-overdue get-together ever actually happening.
Or maybe you’ve got something special coming up this spring – a birthday, an anniversary, a graduation – and you’re trying to find a day that works for everyone. Coordinating multiple schedules can feel like trying to solve a puzzle but luckily, spring has a little trick up its sleeve: bank holidays.
This season gives you four ready-made long weekends that make planning a whole lot easier. If you’re looking for the perfect date to gather everyone together, here they are:
3 April – Good Friday
4 May – Early May Bank Holiday
25 May – Spring Bank Holiday
3 August – Summer Bank Holiday
With four dates to choose from there’s a pretty good chance you’ll find a day that suits the majority. Whether you’re planning an Easter celebration, a relaxed family lunch or simply an excuse to get everyone in the same place again a bank holiday is often the easiest time to make it happen.
Once you’ve settled on a date and started your guest list there’s one more thing worth thinking about – the food.
Cooking for a crowd might sound fun in your head but in reality it can also be a fair bit of pressure. Timing everything, making sure there’s enough for everyone, juggling different tastes… it’s a lot to manage while also trying to enjoy the event yourself.
Enter: Hog Roast Culross.
We know that one of the biggest worries people have when considering catering is the cost but Hog Roast Culross works hard to keep things accessible. The idea is simple: great food and professional service without the sky-high price tag that people often associate with catering.
To make things easier there are tiered meal plans to browse through, giving you a clear idea of what works best for your event and your budget – and if none of those quite fit what you’re looking for, Hog Roast Culross is always happy to chat about creating something tailored to your plans.
So if you’ve been meaning to organise that catch-up for a while now, this might be the perfect moment to finally make it happen.
