Create your own national week competition
Have you got your diary on you?
Prompted by a telephone call informing me that next week is Global Entrepreneurship Week - and brought up short by the fact that I had come within a whisker of missing it - Comment Central has undertaken research to ensure that such a thing never happens again.
Here are some of the year's highlights:
24 Jan, Farmhouse Breakfast Week
30 Jan, National Storytelling Week
1 Feb, National Salt Awarness Week
8 Feb, National Marriage Week
15 Feb, National Chips Week (as in potatoes not the Californian highway patrol)
12 March, National Science and Engineering Week
3 April – 3 May, National Pet Month
26 April, Noise Action Week
1 May, National Windsurfing Week
8 May, National Doughnut Week
16 May, British Sandwich Week
19 May, Be Nice to Nettles Week
17 May, Walk to School Week
4 July, National Transplant Week
18 October, National Baking Week
2 November, National Pathology Week
22 November, National Curry Week
The scheduling leaves something to be desired.
I feel that Salt Awareness Week should come after National Chips Week. And it is a shame that Gordon Brown may no longer be Prime Minister for National Pathology Week.
I also feel as if CC readers should be able to come up with some better ideas for a national week.
A CC prize (example: a signed picture of Geoff Hoon) for the person who comes up with the best new National Week.
