Just because…. it’s May 4th – or Star Wars day #StarWarsDay

Date line May 4th…year… well every year :)

Sometimes, just some times we like to do things people are not expecting. Sometimes its obvious. If you don’t know that today is special, well it is an inter galactic holiday – Galactic Star Wars day

Well today is one of those days, and just for a little distraction:

 

As the UK heads towards it elections for government, it is strange to think that the origins of “Start Wars Day” actually started with the UK parliament:

History of Star Wars day

The reference was first used on May 4, 1979, the day Margaret Thatcher took office as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Thatcher’s political party, the Conservatives, placed a congratulatory advertisement in The London Evening News that stated “May the Fourth Be with You, Maggie. Congratulations.”[4] This reading of the line has also been recorded in the UK Parliament‘s Hansard.[5] – Source wikipedia

What ever you are doing today, “May the Force be with you“—”May the fourth be with you” be with you :)
