Today is my Saint's day, meaning today is the day the catholic church dedicates to St. Albert (Which is my real name - without the "Saint" of course

): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albertus_Magnus

In Spain this is nearly as important as the birthday, so all of us who are called "Alberto" celebrate it with the family. Since my first son also has the same name (And my father, and grandfather, and grand-grandfather, and even earlier, he's the 6th already) , I spent my Saint's day morning taking him to the Zoo and buying him a present

, but nevertheless it's our Saint Day, for all of us. Do people in other countries have a celebration on the day dedicated to their name? Just curious :hmm:

BTW drinks are on me today
