Leap Day!

Woop dee doo, just another extra day, maybe exciting maybe not? For some an extra day at work lol

But good news for ladies out there, cos if you're a woman, wait no longer for that engagement ring!!! For today, is Sadie Hawkins day, and is your day to propose marriage. This tradition originates in Ireland in the 5th century, when St. Bridget convinced St. Patrick to allow one day that a woman could propose. If the man refused, he was fined (incidentally, St. Bridget proposed to St. Patrick that day; he said no). 1,600 years later, the fine has been ousted (who's idea was that?), but women still have only this one day every 4 years set aside to profess their love and commitment for the men in their lives. So girls, don't be shy, this is the one day you can tell the guy of your dreams your true feelings. XD

Good Luck!
