St. Swithin's Day is a story written by Grant Morrison and drawn by Paul Grist in 1989 for Trident Comics.
The story is said by Morrison to be based on their diaries and is also said to be partly autobiographical. This story, is told from the point of view of an unnamed teenager living in 1980s Britain who plans an encounter with then Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher, a politician that the teenager hates, on July 15 (which is Saint Swithin's Day, the origin of the book's title).
