Anyone who has worked alongside me in journalism over the last two decades will know one of my pet hates is the plethora of days that have begun clogging up the calendar over recent years.
I know many of them are meant as a bit of fun, but as well as many being incredibly cynical, I believe all this splurge of dedicated days has done, is take away from the ones that really matter.
Take May 12 for instance.
It s National Porridge Day, National Nutty Fudge Day and National Limerick Day, all of which sound to me like cynical events drawn-up by a marketing expert somewhere as a way to gain attention and make money.

Norfolk GPs have begun the roll out of the coronavirus vaccine with Cringleford Surgery becoming the eighth practice to begin vaccinations on its first patients.
The eight GP practice sites across Norfolk and Waveney will be acting as ‘primary care hubs’ - vaccinating patients from their own practice as well as other neighbouring practices.
Dr Siobhan Rowe, senior partner at the Humbleyard Practice, which includes the Cringleford, Hethersett and Mulbarton surgeries, said: “We are so excited to be starting vaccinations to protect patients from Covid-19. This has been an amazing effort from all those involved in getting ready to roll out the vaccine.”
