It only happens once every four years.
But so does the Olympics, the Soccer World Cup and cleaning out my ears.
It’s also a bloody freezing day here. (7 degrees overnight)
That’s the problem with Canberra. As soon as she gets a whiff that Summer is over, the frosts roll in.
Hopefully this is a one off for now though as next week looks ok:
Monday : Fine, sunny. Min: 9 Max: 26 Tuesday : Fine, mostly sunny. Min: 11 Max: 27 Wednesday: Fine, mostly sunny. Min: 11 Max: 26 Thursday : Fine, mostly sunny. Min: 11 Max: 26
It’s also a 1 in 4 years chance to see The Drop Bears live at the Holy Grail in Kingston on Leap Day!
We’ve been jamming a few new songs, so it should go off tonight.
I am convinced that while I am singing ‘Long Road To Ruin’ I am channeling Dave Grohl.
I WISH!
Oooh….only 2 months till I see him and the Fooeys live again…
Score!
So…any girls proposing to their guys today?
Ha…although LaLa made a good point. She thinks that you’d miss out on a ring if the woman proposes.
Apparently if a guy declines a proposal on Leap Day, they must pay a FINE. “(Back in the 1200s the fine ranged from a kiss, to 1 pound, to a silk dress. Most gents are probably wishing it would work the other way around too!)”
How’s that for pressure??
Personally, I don’t think it should always be left to the male to propose anyway. I mean, why should a guy be left with such a big decision?
Mind you, if the woman nags hints enough, then I guess it’s not really the guys decision anyway…
