Happy mothers day! Argentinian mothers.
I'm keeping lots of old packaging this Christmas as the last Monday in January is Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day.

Little wonder the worlds stock markets took a hit this month, China had a week off. Good on Em, might be all they get for the year. :beach:
Are you ready to be kind tomorrow? World Kindness Day (http://www.kindness.com.au/world-kindness-day.html)
I ask; Why not be kind every day? Or, are we supposed to be kind one day a year and have free license to be nasty any other day!
Perhaps the special day is only for those how forgot how to grow it in the Kindergarten? :angel:

Heh....I remember the many church goers in my town who were perfect for an hour or two one day a week. That gave them licence to be a..holes for the next six and a bit days.

Day
No, you cannot be nasty any other day.
Be Nasty Day is on Sunday March 8th 2015. It is also International Woman's Day; so if a woman is PMT on that date then look out.:diablo:
March 8 is indeed Women's Day in many, many countries.
So, does that make it Nasty Women's Day? Or, maybe, Be Nasty to Women's Day? -many women would probably put up with that if it meant you have to be nice to them every other day.
Oh dear, and I thought I had joined a coin forum.
I have learned a lot since being a member on this forum other than coins.
Keep it up one and all.
Today is International Beer Day (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Beer_Day).
Ladies and Gentlemen please raise your glasses (stubbies, cans or longnecks) and a toast to; malt, hops and yeast.
Plenty of time to celebrate...as I write this (approaching 7pm) it is only approaching 2am in Santa Cruz, where this day was first declared. And if you really need an excuse to indulge then Niue hasn't yet reached 10pm yesterday so a full (perhaps literally) 24 hours to be available soon available, if you close your eyes and imagine you are there too.
My second thought on hearing this (first thought was "gee, should crack a tinnie") was "when is International Red Wine Day?" There isn't one! Closest I cpuld find was International Cabernet Day (http://thewinewankers.com.au/2014/08/28/happy-international-cabernet-day/) later this month. {Check out the name of the website -love it.} There is url=https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/drink-wine-day/]Drink Wine Day[/url] but that was months ago.
I propose that that every day immediately be declared DRINK RED WINE DAY except International Beer Day. White wine, rose, sparkling, port etc. also to be acceptable in lieu.
CHEERS,
Jeff
Hic!

Last Saturday was International Talk Like a Pirate Day and I forgot to give it a guernsey here.
I knew it was coming and then it slipped my mind. I deserve to be keelhauled.
You know why our memory's are like this don't you Jeff ........ because they RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.
Let me give you a hand .....

:dead_horse: ... get down, complete and utter boredom from laying on my right side, get down ... :dead_horse:
Pirates day certainly makes "right eye phacoemulsification and insertion of intraocularlens, 23g trans par plana vitrectomy cryotherapy endodiathermy endolaser fluid/air / 20% sulphurhexafluoride gas exchange" seem rather ..... dull.
the Dutch mothers day in Australia was the best day for me , I used to take them on a day trip every year on mothers day and during the trip home , the hat would go around and I would get more money from them then what the boss gave me for a 15 hour day .
it was always on a Sunday too .
That sounds like it was a very good day for you.
I am sure it beats driving a coach full of rowdy school kids or drunk football fans!
For those who are unaware, W.A. has a public holiday on Monday.
We celebrate the Queen's birthday and it coincides with our Royal Show.
Everyday is a holiday for me but it gets a bit, no very boring after a while :(
Qld is due to switch the Q's B'day over to Oct next year, and labour Day will go back to May.
:blink: I think I might change my birthday :laugh2:
Today is Fibonacci Day (https://www.google.com/search?q=Fibonacci+Day&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&client=firefox-b).
I wonder if it will be as good as the last two added together?

November 23 is celebrated as Fibonacci day because when the date is written in the mm/dd format (11/23), the digits in the date form a Fibonacci sequence: 1,1,2,3. A Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where a number is the sum of the two numbers before it. For example: 1, 1, 2, 3...is a Fibonacci sequence.
My goodness! I almost forgot...today is Dr Who Day (also known as Tardis Day).
The very first episode of a new science fiction series about a mysterious man and his time machine was broadcast, by the BBC (https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006q2x0), on 23rd November, 1963.
Today is World Naked Gardening Day (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Naked_Gardening_Day#Private_vs._public_observance). They have to be kidding in this weather.
Do a Google search and select "images" then marvel at the incredible number of strategically place implements, shrubs and pot plants -watering cans seem very popular. :mocking:
Before you participate might be best to watch the safety video. (https://www.stuff.co.nz/life-style/homed/garden/92225542/world-naked-gardening-day-7-practical--useful-tips?cid=facebook.post.homed)
