I'd have to travel 8,000 miles to find one! _________________________ Some days it just doesn't seem worth trying to chew through the restraints.

April 29 is one to look forward to. I find the fact that we have both April 4 and April 30 in the same month interesting, though! _________________________ Cats know what we feel.

Bertho Mainstay Registered: Fri Oct 04 2002 Posts: 974 Loc: Queensland Australia	Not to be outdone, I'd like to nominate the following Australian holidays: May 3: Swim with Box Jellyfish Day June 16: Trim the Lawn with a Pair of Nose Hair Scissors Day July 8: Squirt Lemon Juice in your Friends Eye Day August 15: Kiss a Redback Spider Day September 22: Hug a Humpback Whale Day October 10: Stare at the Wall Day November 37: Dig a Hole and Put a Bucket on Your Head Day December 5: Dip Your Head in a Vat of Balsamic Vinegar Day Might catch on? Who knows, may even score another public holiday. If the Victorians can get a day off for a horse race, there's hope yet.
