National "What" Day

[Jacqui Harvey]

National "not using anything electrical" day.

No tv, mobiles, pc's, tablets, kettles (unless on a gas hob or open fire), telephones.
Orthodox Jews do that every week.

Yes, remember that from my time in Liverpool.  I had a lot of Jewish friends... Including a boyfriend.

Today is Yorkshire Day. Flat caps, whippet racing and Yorkshire pudding tossing. Oh those quaint Northerners eh? Don't suppose we will be seeing Stoop today: he'll be practicing for this evening's ferret strangling event.

National Jimmy Krankie Day in Scotland.  That will really annoy our leader.

Now, now Colwyn. I'm pretty sure we could uncover some quaint West Country traditions without trying too hard!   

Happy Yorkshire day to all fellow Tykes out there in God's Own County!

Lasses, show your other half you love him this Yorkshire Day by whispering those romantic words in his ear, "I'll do the bins".

We've been out for a half price lunch at our newly re-furbed Hungry Horse. Now I'm just basking in the enjoyment of Yorkshire occupying part of Lancashire with the extension of the Yorkshire Dales National Park.

They have to overcome mighty Burton Albion et al to make it!
