Yay No work today

 

Summer hasn't even started here, technically.

 

is this like a Pagan celebration?

GP: check yer PMs lad

 

looks like a swedish government party

 

Yes, and it involves booze, meat and no work.

 

Until Monday, no san juan here.

I know. It is the same here, but Valborg/valburg/Valburgh (sp ?) is the Swedish and the pagan name. In Norway, I believe they hold it on Monday.

 

Yay! I'm drunk! :yatta::dance:

 

Barcode is stuck in midsummer all the time then.

 

Bleeding winter here.

 

I was up at 4am this morning and it was beautiful. The only problem being that as the months pass into Winter again, I know I'll be getting up at 4am to travel down to London in the pitch dark, cold, miserable, rain, snow... bah!

Enjoy it whilst we have it!

 

hahahaha :lol: good one

 

wait, you mean somewhere in the world people get today off?? :crying:

 

I stand corrected, a Swedish friend I have has told me this. Valborg (correct spelling this time) is on the 30. of April. Midsummer was last Friday, but both of them are Pagan.
