Guest Posted June 19, 2011 Share #3 Posted June 19, 2011 Fathers' Day today? Very ! Because in Germany it already was on June, second. Father's Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia So collecting Leicas, that come from Gremany, you're all entiled to two goodies per year from your families. Maybe they'll even accept, that the "Bollerwagen" tradition described is part of the Oscar Barnack heritage We drove that day to a restaurant for lunch, where everybody came by car, not by Bollerwagen. So just as with birthdays, customs vary. Best, Simon Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
iphoenix Posted June 20, 2011 Share #4 Posted June 20, 2011 In Australia we have ours on 4th September. I'd better start thinking about what Leica related present to buy myself. Thanks for the reminder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pico Posted June 20, 2011 Share #5 Posted June 20, 2011 . The very best virtue of Father's Day to me is that I never had children. And we do not celebrate any holidays. Not even Christmas nor Honoka, and the best evidence of our resistance to the popular, Me Lady, Molly McGuire does not celebrate Saint Patrick's day. And if there were a Leica anniversary, I'd gold-plate a Holga. . Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
