Yervant1 Posted January 27, 2007 Report Share Posted January 27, 2007 (edited) You guys out there, if you are out of luck for Feb. 14 try Feb. 15. New Zealand declares Feb 15 National Lamb Day to honour 60 million sheep 26/01/2007 12:44:00 AM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- WELLINGTON, N.Z. (AP) - New Zealanders' love affair with sheep gained official recognition Friday when the agriculture minister declared Feb. 15 "National Lamb Day." New Zealand has four million human inhabitants and 60 million sheep. Agriculture Minister Jim Anderton suggested New Zealanders have no reason to be embarrassed about their sheep population and said Lamb Day would mark the 125th anniversary of the first shipment of frozen meat from New Zealand to London. "We hope all New Zealanders will recognize this meat industry milestone and mark it by enjoying lamb for dinner on Feb. 15, to celebrate 125 years of meat exports," Anderton said.

Yervant1 Posted January 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted January 28, 2007 At least we know there will be no insomnia that night. Not to mention the constant nagging after an expensive dinner that you forgot the Roses or the box of Chocolate. Of course jewellery with a Diamond is a must.
