water Posted November 22, 2006 CID Share Posted November 22, 2006 For everyone who celebrates it, enjoy Thanksgiving with the people you love. They may not always be there... And if you aren't a Thanksgiving celebrater, eat some turkey anyway (it tastes like chicken)! Here's your chance to say thanks, I'll go first. Thanks to CA3LE and the entire mod staff for this great place, for taking us all under their wing and making this place the wonderful place it is! Thanks to my husband for dealing with my moodiness. Cuz I guarantee it ain't easy! Thanks to my ex Aggr3 for being the wonderful man he is and open to having a great relationship with me. It matters! Thanks to my kids for being the most wonderful, caring, charming, intelligent spawn from the devil (that would be moi). I love you very much! Thanks to a few members here who made me feel special when I joined at first and led me on the path to being comfortable here. Thanks to all the members that keep me coming back and having fun while I learn new things! You all rock, and I'm honered to know you all! Is the turkey done yet??

tommie gorman Posted November 23, 2006 CID Share Posted November 23, 2006 The First Thanksgiving"They spent two months at sea to reach a strange new world, and barely survived once they got there." Voyage On The Mayflower The 1620 voyage from England to America was more than 3,000 miles and beset by autumn storms. Daily Life The Pilgrims arrived in the New World during the winter, making it very difficult for them to find food and build shelter. Already weakened by their two-month voyage, most of the passengers failed to survive the first few months in their new home. Fortunately, native people called Wampanoag, or "eastern peoples," already lived in the Massachusetts Bay area. They shared their knowledge of local crops and navigation with the "coat-men," as they called the English, and helped the colonists survive. (and finally) The Thanksgiving Feast The English colonists we call Pilgrims celebrated days of thanksgiving as part of their religion. But these were days of prayer, not days of feasting. Our national holiday really stems from the feast held in the autumn of 1621 by the Pilgrims and the Wampanoag to celebrate the colony's first successful harvest. http://teacher.scholastic.com/thanksgiving/ So now you have the true story of Thanksgiving. Now is the turkey done yet??

Thanksgiving, or Thanksgiving Day, is an annual one-day holiday to give thanks (traditionally to God) for the things one has at the close of the harvest season. In the United States, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November, and in Canada it is celebrated on the second Monday in October. In the United Kingdom, Thanksgiving is another name for the Harvest festival, held in churches across the country on a relevant Sunday to mark the end of the local harvest, though it is not thought of as a major event (compared to Christmas or Easter) as it is in other parts of the world. This tradition was taken to North America by early settlers, where it became much more important. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommie gorman Posted November 23, 2006 CID Share Posted November 23, 2006 And happy belated Harvest festival to you and the rest in the UK just- . (about Sept. 23) Only found out tonight. When is Harvest Festival? Harvest festivals are traditionally held on or near the Sunday of the Harvest Moon. This is the full Moon that occurs closest to the autumn equinox (about Sept. 23). In two years out of three, the Harvest Moon comes in September, but in some years it occurs in October. Unlike the USA and Canada, the UK does not have a national holiday for Harvest Festival. http://www.woodlands-junior.kent.sch.uk/customs/Harvest.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roco Posted November 23, 2006 CID Share Posted November 23, 2006 Hi Tommie thanks for the info in post #12 I think your Thanksgiving day , is more in line with our August bank holiday , know as "thank goodness they have gone day" maybe we can now get a bit of peace and quiet , Holidays in UK , we get the lowest amount in the world, My Gov.says any more and we would loose our competitive edge , IMHO that went blunt about 100 years ago when we banned children under 10y being used as chimney sweep brushes, the UK has just fallen out with the European Union , as we refused to give more holidays and put a limit on the total working hours in a week , as (Gov.quote) I it would reduce or competitive edge etc , 300miles and 2 months , how long did it take before the Revenue cutter arrived , ? Happy Thanksgiving day to the Turkeys also , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
