H,

A month, huh? That's a long time, considering most of it probably goes over their heads.

My favourite? Miracle Month, which will undoubtedly triple the sales of Lotto tickets around the country.

I like World Salt Awareness Week. For all those people in the world who aren't aware of salt.

Cheers,

Tony

I knew that tomorrow marks the end of National Children's Week in Australia – though, in some respects a week doesn't seem long enough, I suppose Australia's children will just have to be grateful with one week and learn greater resilience.

But I confess my ignorance about October being Dwarfism Awareness Month.

I'm so embarrassed, I could kick myself in the head.
