Happy New Year

Used to be that Britain and the Colonies, and even the US after we became independent changed the year on March 25th. Really.

Until 1752 (when Britain and their colonies switched from the Julian to the Gregorian calendar) the year changed on March 25th.

After that it went to Jan 1.
