Well I trust nobody has died of chocolate poisoning ;D
Well I've done my Hungarian tradition of watering the ladies to keep them young and beautiful.
Now to get on with celebrating my nameday 8-) 8-) 8-)

Here in Italy is TWO TIMES holiday, today. One more than yesterday. It's holiday because hereabout the Monday after Easter IS a holiday (called, translated in English, something like "Little Easter") AND because this year it falls the 25 April, that is "Liberation Day", the celebration the end of the second world war and the defeat of the Nazi (for Italy, at least). :)

All in all an apocalyptic boring day, if you can't go in a outing somewhere... and it's VERY cloudy, here, right now. :-/

It's also a holiday here in .Ca  I had to work and I got watered all day. Rain predicted all week. I had to search 'Watering the ladies' and it sure seems like a lot of fun.. Just a Quote below..


"Watering is a festive social event, and during the course of the day boys, and men, young and old, often in groups, take this opportunity to go from house to house and visit as many young, eligible girls, pretty women, loved and respected matriarchs as possible, while the women, dressed in their finest, wait at home in eager anticipation."

Goodly morning Mark and all... ;)

I caught a glimpse of the news last night and they showed in Germany where they throw eggs on a court.

Apparently this year the long distance of egg throwing was not broken however I do have a concern about this... :o

I wonder if our Matt "expat" from Simviation, our mechanical engineer, our Camel builder....gosh I wonder if he is covered in egg today.... ;D

There is a very significant difference between trees and flowers. In Hungary they treat the ladies as flowers... Mind you I have days when I'd happily treat some women as trees!
