Please don't get the idea that I am English..

My Mother was English, My father was Welsh and I was born in Scotland..

I call myself a Great Britain..or a Scot..Others call me an English Bas..Mongrel..because I have a sort of English accent..

John.

So it's an English holiday then, I mean technically, that was when you were still an English outpost and before you became revolting?

John.

Well, I guess you could credit England with helping to develop it... in the same way you could credit England with helping establish the USA!  8) ::)  Canada is a whole different story!

Anyway hope you had a good THURSDAY! Cheers.

LOL... I'm sure you know the American and Canadian holiday... a particular group of settlers (Pilgrims and Puritans from England)celebrated a good harvest and gave thanks to God for helping them survive. Canadians celebrate in October, we celebrate on this date in November. Its a FEASTING holiday. Turkey being the tradition.

Anyway, Cheers and thanks for thinking about us!

We got a couple of inches over night...and it's 8 deg. right now....but they claim it will hit 40 on Saturday...but with more snow tonight. I guess it could be worse. Maybe this will be one of those winters that wasn't like we had a few years ago, but I'll be thankful for getting through it, again!
