Did you know?

• A person born February 29 is known as a ‘leaping' (I'm assuming the connection is that that date is associated with a leap year. A leap year is a year containing an extra day)
• February 29 is the 60^th day of 2008 (Well done if you have kept up your resolutions started January 1 2008. If not, your resolutions can always start again March 1)
• On February 29 2008, there'll be 306 days remaining until 1 Jan 2009
• There is a tradition that in leap years, women may make a proposal of marriage on February 29. If the man rejects the proposal, he should soften the blow by providing a kiss

In 1921 Roscoe ‘Fatty' Arbuckle starred in a film called Leap Year, where he plays a man getting in trouble whenever he give advice to his girlfriends about marriage You can learn more about this film at Amazon Arbuckle in Leap Year

Happy Birthday to you all around the world born on 29 February!!
