For instance, Christmas in the summer sounds good, I see no disadvantage really, as the calendar is a human construct I think we’d all be fine. In about 720 years, summer would be winter and vice versa. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strongly disagree with this. Personally I find April to be the cruellest month, the way it breeds lilacs out of the dead land, mixing memory and desire and stirs the dull roots with spring rain, imvho. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Moonster Posted February 10 Share Posted February 10 21 hours ago, D Angelo Barksdale said: There should be 13 months of 28 days, not 12 months of random ones. 30 days have September, April, June and November, all the rest have 31 except February. Made up pish. I'm open to this but only if you come up with a good name for the 13th month. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In consecutive months of March a long time ago, I started "work", failed my driving test and got seven shades of shite kicked out me. It took a few years to accept March was just a normal month.

It took a few years to accept March was just a normal month. March is not just a normal month. The Romans named it after Mars the God of War. It was also the first month of the year. Shows how they liked to kick things off. Incidentally September, October, November and December were 7th, 8th, 9th and 10th as their names might suggest. Anyway Scotland vs Ireland in the Cup this afternoon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
