I think there was a consensus last year that the day on which Mrs D is set was Wed 20 June 1923. So am I right in assuming that most of us would consider the date more important than the day of the week? This year, of course, they are one and the same, which won't happen again until 2029. </div><div id="yiv3800146579m_-3101100946907978371yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1517326954445_3862"><br clear="none"></div><div id="yiv3800146579m_-3101100946907978371yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1517326954445_3862">Another question I've been asked is whether it should be Dallowday or Dalloway Day, so may I also throw that out for discussion?
