April Fools!
Here is something quite interesting which gives an explanation to the expression in the heading, I quote:
A month with whole of eleven days missing. This was the time England shifted from Roman Julian Calendar to the Gregorian Calendar, and the king of England ordered those 11 days to be wiped off the face of the month of September of 1752. (What couldn't a King do in those days?!) And yes, the workers worked for 11 days less, but got paid for the entire 30 days. And that's how "Paid Leave" was born. Hail the King!!!
Before that April is the first Month of the year. Even then people didn’t agree to use the Roman Julian Calendar and celebrated 1st April as a New Year then the King announced that, those who celebrate April as the New Year are fools… (April fools…)
Histories are really interesting!

Skandinaviska författare säljer bra i Frankrike!
«Un âge d'or.» C'est le géant suédois Per Olov Enquist qui utilise cette expression à propos des lettres nordiques. Comment mieux résumer la situation? Depuis plusieurs décennies, ces cinq pays qui totalisent à peine 25 millions d'habitants ne cessent de faire parler d'eux. Nourris aux sagas islandaises, les écrivains du Nord ont le conte dans la peau.

Stressful questions?
Here is one of the comments:
"You cant even spell Tony Blair and even understand Ireland is not just Ireland but Northern Ireland is part of the UK and the currency is pounds, whilst Republic of Ireland is not part of the UK and the currency is Euros."
What is your opinion?
