Florist tells customers that Mothering Sunday is on a Friday
A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the confusion regarding the date of Mother’s Day.
In Britain it’s always the fourth Sunday in Lent (which will make it Sunday March 22nd this year). In the USA it will be the second Sunday in May (which will be May 10th in 2009).
Well, it seems even the professionals can get confused. For instance, this morning I stumbled across the website of iflorist.co.uk:
They sound pretty confident don’t they? But err guys.. March 20th isn’t a Sunday – it’s a Friday!
Seems to me like someone hasn’t been properly updating their website – they changed the year, but not the date! Or could this be an attempt by the florist to encourage earlier flower-buying to boost the economy and wake the world up from the credit crunch?
No wonder people find the date of Mother’s Day hard to work out. And don’t even get me started on when they’re celebrating Mother’s Day in Argentina, Norway and Greece..
PS. Don’t forget, if you’re looking for a unique and beautiful gift for your mother this Mother’s Day that we are having a 20% off sale in the Fabiola & Sing Sing online store until March 22nd. Which is a Sunday. :-)
