British Summer time? Doesn't that relate to the lifespan of a Mayfly? :-)

Ho-hum, I was being subtle - rather too subtle it seems.
Leave off the 1602 in your search......

Right I've done a search on Google and there lots of stuff on March 20th including some weird Australian ritual but nothing of any relevance. I'm none the wiser to be honest!

I was assuming that the ritual was what Kim was refering to (it appears to be international, but rarely observed btw).
Arrrrgh!!
So I tried it again & got the result I expected, but then I tried it in UK pages only & it's a lot harder to find. So, WWW .............

Does "A Bang And A Wimpy" (Attila the Stockbroker) refer to a more prosaic version of this ritual?
Bet you wish you'd never started this thread Kim!
