Apparently I heard in the news that the Govt was going to be forced due to European legislation to change the rules relating to the current Calendar due to the metric system.

They are going to insist starting from next year we make the first day of each month the "0" of the Month and the 1st will effectively become the second day of the Month.

This is due to the metric system where the number "0" is actually the first whole number.

More Euro meddling..................Grrrr !!!!

This was the best ever April Fools day hoax - from a time when people knew how to enjoy a bit of humour (even though a great number of the public FELL FOR IT!)
