    So nahnahnahnah

    I got a promise of another wooden treestump carved mushroom in the end. My partner makes them with a chainsaw and they're really, really tricky to get just right. Plus there's always the chance he'll lop a leg off whilst whittling and I can finally claim on that life insurance ....

    In my opinion men's day is in the other 364/365 days.
    Haha Romanian men must live easier than I do!

    Hazell, how are St George's day and St Paddy's day male days? I doubt the Scots and the Welsh agree :

    Fortunetely I'm not a Father either :

    The Scots and Welsh get to drink Guinness or bitter on those days ... they pretty soon forget their own birthdays, never mind the Day day :

    Who knows? Maybe you're right... At least when it comes to party.
    Anyway they are in the Champions League if you take by their schedule.
    Just think of celebrating ALL the Premiere League saints [ Basil, John, Nicholas, Constantine, George, Peter, Paul. Mary ( 2 times! Big Mary and Little Mary) , Helen, Ann, Dimitri, Parascheva, etc. ] + lots of Second Division ones + lots of christian holidays + 1 May+ work colleagues birthdays + etc.etc.etc..

    The cherry on the cake is the 3 days off we'll take for the NATO summit in Bucharest.

    And don't imagine that women stay home with arms crossed and waiting for them. They just join them.
