Stock calendar problem

I use the stock calendar which comes with the Desire, and this syncs to my Google calendar. On my Google Calendar I have added a few additional calendars including UK Holidays and, because I have links with Norway, Norwegian Holidays. Last year when I first bought the phone and set up the HTC calendar everything was fine. Towards the end of last year I noticed that none of the holidays for 2011 were appearing in the HTC calendar (UK or Norway), although both showed up on the Google Calendar on my laptop.

I did some research on these forums, and it seems to be a common problem. The suggested solution was to remove the additional calendars from within Google Calendar, then resync the phone, then add the calendars again, and resync again. Well I tried this and managed to get the UK Holidays back, but after several attempts I still can't get the Norwegian Holidays on my phone.

I have tried a different calendar app, Touch Calendar, to see whether this would resolve the problem, but no, I have the same problem. From what I have read here I believe that all of these calendar apps effectively sit on top of the basic Android calendar, and the problem lies with the Android calendar. Correct me if I have misunderstood here. So is there any way of resolving this problem? It worked perfectly last year. Why should a change of year screw it up? Surely we are not expected to go through the rigmarole of removing calendars, syncing, adding and resyncing at the end of every year??
 
CalenGoo can sync directly with google calendar. There's still a free beta available at the moment, so you could try that and see whether it solves your problem.
