An idea and a reason for the post below?
I just remembered that yesterday I was talking to someone and mentioned the old tradition of women being able to propose to men on February 29th. The custom supposedly stems from St. Bridget complaining to St. Patrick that men take too long to ask, he, therefore, allowed that women could ask men once every 4 years. Or it goes back to the pagan Brigid, after whom many think St. Bridget was patterned.
Therefore, Hugh Laurie had no right to turn me down! So, if you see him, mention it ok?
