HAPPY PEACE DAY

IF THERE IS TO BE PEACE IN THE WORLD,










THERE MUST BE PEACE IN THE NATIONS
IF THERE IS TO BE PEACE IN THE NATIONS







THERE MUST BE PEACE IN THE CITIES
IF THERE IS TO BE PEACE IN THE CITIES,
                                                    







THERE MUST BE PEACE BETWEEN NEIGHBOURS
IF THERE MUST BE PEACE WITH  NEIGHBOURS






THERE MUST BE PEACE AT HOME AND SCHOOL

IF THERE MUST BE PEACE THERE                               
THERE MUST BE PEACE IN OUR HEART

Lao Tse (570-490 B.C.)

BBC´S 2010 CALENDAR

BBC's 2010 calendar features photos of costumes and celebrations from around the world.



A long time ago the year was marked out with special days which marked the passing year. These were days of celebrations where people would do things, eat things or make things which they would not normally do.

Cheese rolling, Nettle Eating, Toe Wrestling, Bog Snorkelling are just a few of the strange, bizarre, wacky, eccentric and even mad festivals still taking place in Britain today.
