    St Andrew's Day. Patron Saint of Scotland, I believe.


    We usually have Halloween in half term - but this was not the case, to my surprise, a couple of years back.
    I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.

    This suggests it's end of Nov, though I hadn't realised Kimberley lived in Scotland. :cool:
