Vanguard3000 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 It's Victoria Day weekend. May Two-For.I worked today, and work Sunday. Then I'm going home to the my hometown, as I have a dental appointment on Tuesday. On the upside, it means I get Tuesday off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunenewt Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 I wondered why you called it that, so I checked Wikipedia:In some parts of Canada, the holiday is colloquially known as May Two-Four.[2][3] This phrase has two meanings: the holiday always falls near the date of May 24, and a two-four is Canadian slang for a case of 24 bottles of beer, a common packaging of the drink in Canada (and a common purchase of those planning to celebrate the weekend).Nice to see the colonies celebrating something British.
