One of those expressions that has stuck since childhood is "1 August, the first day of the last month of winter." Somewhere along the line I've added, "Happy horses birthday." I don't think the horses that live on this farm are thoroughbreds but happy birthday to them, anyway. Lucky they aren't Northern Hemisphere horses or they'd have to wait till 1 January and I have other things on my mind that day.
It's strange for me to think about August this way, but then again it's always like that on the Southern Hemisphere.

It is also Switzerland's birthday (National Day)
