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

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!

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:

JeffH

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.
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 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.
