I know it isn't celebrated here, but I thought I would wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving anyway.

It's celebrated here as is every festival around the world. Many Americans here, in fact two at the next table.

Happy Thanksgiving to you too @bambino

In rememberance of the true meaning of thanksgiving I suggest we share gratitude for some of the things we have..who'd like to start?

I am thankful for my good health for example...

thank you @Bambino , thoroughly enjoyed the videos in the link you posted

To think it began with the colonists & the native American indians sharing an Autumn harvest meal together

Never been one to 'fight shy' of showing my ignorance Bambino, I thought its origins were political
