Currently celebrating (well here anyway)

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Istvan the first Hungarian king (Same name as me, but in Hungarian)
Loads of fireworks & stuff all over the country.
Nearly 2 million people went to Budapest for the fireworks there tonight.
Cheers.

Me too, so I guess I'll raise a glass in Istvan's honour tonight. 8)

(In fact, we seem to have enough Stevens and Stephens here these days to have a party in our own right. ;D)

It's alright when it's at the other end of the year, but can get a bit confusing when they're right next to eachother, like my (late) grand mother's. Apparently no-one ever knew for sure which one was actually which and which they were celebrating :eek: :lol:

Me, I find any reason to celebrate a good one ;D

Bit of a "barstewardised" name that one.
Keyser, or Kaiser, is literally tranlated as Csaszar, but that's a family name.
Soze should be pronounced Shoze, but I think that's also a family name.
