Mayday! Mayday!

I wonder why it's May Day? The distress call . . . Why do you say "May Day"? It's only a Bank Holiday. Why not Shrove Tuesday? Or Ascension Sunday? "Ascension Sunday! Ascension Sunday! The fifteenth Wednesday after Pentecost! The fifteenth Wednesday after Pentecost!"

Thats okay. Given the calendrical proclivities of the Catholic Church, I'm sure it's still something peculiar.
