Stefan's right- it is a Mexican holiday and a 19th century one at that. Not
even kinda sorta period if you turn sideways and squint a little! Who's
Saints' day is it? (I don't have my book here its's... you know) could
another celebration be done?

>>Did the spanish fly last year.

REALLY! How was it? Or can we talk about that sort of thing in GUnthar's

Urgh- on my way back to human status,
