@BB
I suppose “Dry Season” commencement ceremony would sound more appealing to you… SMH!
Actually silly no it wouldn’t. Some creativity would help!
When I commenced reading the article this was the very thought on my mind, “Dominica has Spring now?” Copycat.
They also refer to summer holidays. Common! They make us laugh and some others. Those seasons belong to the climates where it is cold for approximately nine months – Winter. Then comes Spring, Summer and Autumn (Fall).
Incidentally, March 21st is the commencement of Spring in Canada, US and Europe and wherever else it applies to.
This reminds me of another joke in my book of laughter (I have many of them – jokes): Two G.I.’s were walking down the streets of Paris. One said, “Spring in the air.” The other replied: “Why should I?” The first time I read it, I could not stop laughing. Hope you have a good one.
Whenever I tell this joke, they also laugh. It reminds me I should send this one to the Toronto Media. Canadians love jokes – some, all sorts. Me, I only love certain jokes as this one.
