2 February, one of my favourite days in the year.
It's the anniversary of a performance of 'Twelfth Night' at Middle Temple Hall in 1602, at the presence of Her Maiestie Queene Elizabeth I. In the cast, a certain William Shaksper.
It's ten minutes to kick off of the Rugby Six Nations Tournament.
In Italy it's the Candelora so we'll be making pancakes after Ireland v Italy. The pitch looks wonderful in Croke Park. The possibility of the usual slaughter is upon us, but for now it's all very exciting.
The Groundhog of Pennsylvania proclaims six more weeks of Winter. We don't have a copy of the glorious Groundhog Day so we'll be off to the cinema tonight, and the farmers' market tomorrow. I love a quiet weekend.

AND it's my birhtday. Unglaublich!
Of course! Happy birthday matey! Sorry for the delay :-)
And it's my wedding half-a-year-versary (we got hitched on 2 August)!
Congratulations Red and * ! You are talking to somebody who wishes non-birthdays were also celebrated, so a half-a-yearversary is a very good thing.
It was also Superbowl weekend - I actually find American Football quite dull, but it's all quite interesting from an anthropological point of view...
It also appears that Carla Bruni and Sarko got hitched onFeb 2nd, although 1 April would have been a more appropriate date...
I wish I were glad that finally the French have as embarrassing a President as we had (and possibly will have again) in Italy, but I am too scared about Berlusconi's next move to say....
It's all rather undignified, the way Sarko is carrying on with Carla Bruni, isn't it?
Ho perso la partita per causa-Shakespeare, e nel 1602 non c'ero.
Ma sì, il 2 febbraio è un bel giorno anche per me. :)
