In a Covid world, POETS day has sort of lost its impact.

@Soossie typo there somewhere? Not sure I follow. But, my brain is still full of toothpaste and deodorant, so this could also be a contributing factor, lol.

@Valentine

No,it's me... I thought you meant how poets should help the poets day survive in the future and adapt to social distancing...

My bad...

@Soossie [rubs deodorant out of eyes, washes away nose hair clippings et al]. Ah, I see. 🤥. Lol. 😉

@Valentine

Lol...

@Valentine

But you made me learn... thank you..

[quote]POETS day is a term used by workers in the United Kingdom to refer jocularly to Friday as the last day of the work week. The word "POETS" is an acronym for "Piss off early, tomorrow's Saturday": hence Friday becomes "Poets day".[/quote]

@Soossie that's the one. Is this not a global thing? 🤔 Clearly not making sense in an Islamic country obviously

@SW-User

Lol... you are right.... However, and irrelevant to religion, only British can look forward to an early pub time on a Friday...I love that spirit.. 🤗🤗

@Soossie plus of course Maundy Thursday becomes a pseudo Friday because Good Friday is a holiday so you set Poetgf day once a year too.

@SW-User

That's lovely... got to love most of the British customs...

@Soossie lol. I am your humble servant 😊😊😊🤪

@Soossie oooo, an intentional pun there perhaps, [quote]I love that spirit [/quote]

Lol. They are only allowed lower alcohol beer 🍻. Not spirits. 🥃 Not before the sun has passed the yard arm, at least.

Lol, I can see soossie now frantically Googling suns and yard arms. Have fun Soossie!!🍹🤓🤗
