    Was it invented to cut down on bank robbery statistics? No...:~ I might be wrong but I think they were created in the 1900's in the Victorian Period. They were brought in to give workers/servants "official" holidays. :omg: Where as european countries have various "Saints/holy days" that were/are holidays we had nothing where employees were entitled to a day off work until they were created. Doubtless if I'm wrong I'll soon know about it ;P JohnJ X| Life is hard and then you die! X| http://www.rainbow-innov.co.uk[^]

      If I've understood you correctly, then holiday is actually a holy day. Knowledge gained! Thank you for providing this piece of ethymology. Preferred storyline: - I am your father. Search your feelings and you'll know it's the truth. Together we can rule this galaxy like father and son. - Ok dad. Let's kick some butt!

        Today it's very quiet here. :( Why? Does everybody go on holidays? By the way, maybe a little pool. Where do you like to go for holidays? My answer: sea :)

        Here it was a nice and sunny Sunday, with temperatures ranging from 26ºC ~ 31ºC. Nice day for playing with my 4 year old boy. Concussus surgo. When struck I rise.

I hope I'd get a chance soon. Smitha It's easy to sit there and say you'd like to have more money. And I guess that's what I like about it. It's easy. Just sitting there, rocking back and forth, wanting that money.

              Hey Mauricio, Me and Nish are playing your game. A few other racing fanatics here, too ;) Smitha p.s: BTW the spelling is correct :) It's easy to sit there and say you'd like to have more money. And I guess that's what I like about it. It's easy.
