The tradition of the Sleepy Head Day traces back to the Middle Ages, when the belief was that the person in the household who slept late on this day would be lazy and non-productive for the rest of the year.In the old days, the last person sleeping in the house (also dubbed as the "laziest") could be woken up by using water, either by being thrown into a lake or the sea, or by having water thrown on them.
Previously, there were around 45 holidays, but now we only have holidays for special occasions. I think this is fine for now, as we only get a single day off on Saturdays instead of a two-day weekend. The reduction balances out the number of holidays we have throughout the year.
