International Stout Day 6th November

This is an annual celebration of a type of beer known as stout. Stouts were developed from porters in the 1700’s. Porter beer is a dark beer evolving from English brown ales. It is a type of dark beer that is warm fermented and includes various styles such as oatmeal stout, milk stout and imperial stout. The term “stout” was first used in the 17th century to refer to strong beers. Stouts are known for their rich flavours, often with notes of coffee, chocolate and caramel.
The beer became popular in the city of London especially with Porters (hence its name) it had a strong flavour, took longer to spoil than other beers and was cheaper.
After the First World War milk stout was claimed as nutritious helping nursing mothers increase their milk production and helping the weak and infirm. There are antioxidant, vitamins, minerals and dietary fibre.

Halloween 31st October

Many people celebrate Halloween on October 31st with costumes, parties, trick-or-treating and carved pumpkins.
Its Celtic origins start in Scotland and Ireland with the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain which celebrates the end of harvest and the start of winter. It was believed that at this time the boundary between the living and the dead was thin allowing sprits to pass into the living world. Children would dress up in costumes known as “guising”. They would perform songs, jokes or small tricks in exchange for food or gifts.
Halloween was also known as All Hallows Eve, the night before All Saint’s Day (1st November) then All soul’s Day (2nd November). During this time families would bake soul cakes giving them to children or the poor in exchange for prayers for the dead.
Halloween has also been known as Nut-Crack Night or Apple and Candle Night. These refer to seasonal games and communal gatherings held to celebrate the autumn harvest.
Roots to our modern Halloween did originate in the British Isles with the v Celtic and Christian traditions of Samhain and All Hallow’ Eve. However modern Halloween has been influenced by American Traditions. Trick or Treat!

International Plasma Awareness Week
6th-10th October

World Smile Day Friday 3rd October

This day is to celebrate kindness and joy. A smile can lighten someone’s day and it costs nothing. It will be doing you good as well as when you smile endorphins are created which are neurotransmitters that cause feelings of pleasure.
The colour yellow has been used for the smiley emoji face as it is a symbol of cheerfulness.
Harvey Ball created the circle with a few dots and an upturned curve that has become the emoji. He was concerned that it had been so commercialised, taking away from the happiness of its original meaning that he created World Smile Day to spread joy and love to everyone regardless of race, gender, or geographic location. There is now a Harvey Ball World Smile Foundation after his death in 2001.
Fun facts about smiling, studies have shown smiles can be contagious as the brain release happy hormones so other people smile back, babies begin to smile at 6-8 weeks and there is little evidence to show smiling gives you wrinkles. So go ahead and smile.
