Thanks, Eunice - we had ours here in Spain ages ago, on San José. March the somethingth, just after or before St Paddy's Day. It seems really odd how father's/mother's day varies so much from country to country. The UN should maybe step in and standardise it.

But San José seems like a particularly strange choice, seeing as how Joseph was the most famous non-dad in all history/mythology.

There's one benefit of the Castro regime for you - you never had to study scripture at school.

Though the King James Bible does at least have some wonderful poetry to it, which I guess Marxist-Leninist economic history textbooks might have lacked.
