Title: just saw!
Post by: 1936ace on May 17, 2012, 02:30:13 AM
Hey, just saw on the NGF calender you guys have fathers day in the uk in June. Do you think i can claim this day as i model/play with british trains maybe with a nice loco type gift and still claim our september day as well. I think i will influence the three year old as i think the teenages will catch on- one can only hope. :smiley-laughing:

It's worth a try, Bart. Let us know if you're still alive afterwards :smiley-laughing:

Bart,

I am sure if the Queen can have two birthdays you can have two fathers days...

It's also a National holiday today in Germany for Himmelfahrt (Ascension Day)

advised the wife of my interpretation of the dates but it met with a good laugh and the comment"that why i married you, you make me laugh every day"
back to the drawing board and will try it out on the three yr old.(bigger kids also just laughed,so not fair)

Himmelfahrt and fathers day seem to go together rather well in my warped mind  ;D
