That sounds like a massive change for the country. I saw some headlines about it earlier but didn't think they'd actually go through with it. It’ll be interesting to see how it works in practice.

Er maybe you missed the point? Or the old double bluff. Anyway, the day is over - so back to normal.

Every day is a school day, see if you remember next year Tebo53!

28th December, Holy Innocents day, is Spanish version of April fools day.

Our historian typed a very long story about complaints from nearby towns about our town crest. No idea how many people were taken in by it but he put a lot of work into it so I guess that he fooled some.

Given the amount of fake news spread about these days, every day might as well be a Day of the Innocents.
