In any case, it should be the same date everywhere. I can imagine that you'd want to change the date if you're too busy to celebrate on the official day, but all of Gibraltar?
Are you using the same calendar as the rest of the world? [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Nope I use the same calender as the rest of the world, it has 365 days in it and its been in the family for 30 years now, we haven't seen the need to replace it
Seriously though it is the official date in Gibraltar, perhaps its a conspiracy instigated to ake advantage of saps i9n Gib gullible enough to buy two Mothersday gifts. Hallmark is evil I tells ya
