[rebel-builders] Happy Thanksgiving !
Well it was today.
We always celebrate it before the American thanksgiving date and we
usually think that yours is too close to Christmas for another family
get together... And the turkey was just fine and that is about all I
know about that!

[rebel-builders] Happy Thanksgiving !
Just a bit of Thankgiving -- Canadian History
Over the years, Canada has had several dates for their Thanksgiving and at
one point, Canada and the US used to celebrate Thanksgiving on the same day.
However, in 1957, Canada settled on the 2nd Monday in October.
In Canada Thanksgiving is celebrated on the second Monday in October. Unlike
the American tradition of remembering Pilgrims and settling in the New
World, Canadians give thanks for a successful harvest. The harvest season
falls earlier in Canada compared to the United States due to the simple fact
that Canada is further north.
The history of Thanksgiving in Canada goes back to an English explorer,
Martin Frobisher, who had been trying to find a northern passage to the
Orient. He did not succeed but he did establish a settlement in Northern
America. In the year 1578, he held a formal ceremony, in what is now called
Newfoundland, to give thanks for surviving the long journey. This is
considered the first Canadian Thanksgiving. Other settlers arrived and
continued these ceremonies. He was later knighted and had an inlet of the
Atlantic Ocean in northern Canada named after him - Frobisher Bay."

[rebel-builders] Happy Thanksgiving !
Yes we did Nigel and it didn't dawn on me at the time either. Was really
great putting a face to a decade or so of internet chat. Jackie's face was
of course nicer to see though! lol
Thanks again for a night out on the town with the ladies to the Barn Pub
outside Pontyclun, Wales. Very nice of you to splurge for the 5 of us.
My wife Leah, myself, Nigel and his love Jackie. My sister-in-law Kathy took
