I'm with you Craig, the week starts on Sunday, always has, always will.

I'm waiting with increasing anticipation for my new toy, getting more excited by the day, but glad you are taking the time to make sure all is well before posting them out, appreciate it Craig......

I'm not religous BUT....on the seventh day, God rested.

 

[WrongEyedJesus]

Thats as maybe but he started on a Saturday after Football Focus.

 

[Squidge]

PC's take day 0 as Sunday, and day 6 as Saturday and my week also starts on Sunday. And as we all know, computers can't be wrong

 

[Jarska333]

Well, my computer says it starts from Monday...

Sometime during the early 20th century, Soviet Union stopped using saturday and sunday. The worker culture, I'd assume. I figured you might know this.

 

[Tobriand]

Yeah? Well mine starts at 3:17am on Tuesday! Whoever needs convention anyway!

Ok, not serious, as you'll realise... I'm a Monday person, on account of I much prefer the idea of Work... Rest... Work... Rest to rest WORK rest rest WORK rest...

You'd have to be an idiot to take the starting day as anything other than a Monday.

A weekend lasts for Saturday and Sunday, and then a new week begins on Monday. That's why it's the first weekday. Because it's the first day of the week. And Saturday and Sunday are the end of the week.

Hope that helps you see the error of your ways.

I've looked this up in the Encyclopedia as I didn't realise some countries considered the week to start on monday, apparently its common in mainland europe, but most English speaking countries (and south america) consider Sunday to be the first day. Weird.

To me starting on sunday and ending on saturday always seemed nice and neat. I wonder if the government in the UK has an official line on it. Often when we are having a 'something' awareness week, they say it starts 'this sunday' on the TV and radio.

In Italy , France and Spain week begins with monday (Lunedì-Lundi-Idontknowhowinspanish), by the Ancient Romans' tradition.

 

[Eolair]

So when english speaking people say "weekend" they actually mean just friday evening to saturday evening? :huh:

 

[Jarska333]

Most likely the end of the working week, and then Sunday, a... holy day? (Direct translation... ) A resting day...

 

[choronzon]

In Italy , France and Spain week begins with monday (Lunedì-Lundi-Idontknowhowinspanish), by the Ancient Romans' tradition.

Lunes

 

[icurafu]

It's all a religious thing. you know about when god rested on the 7th day for whatever religion othe then christianity that beleives in it.

But I think most people consider a weekend saturday and sunday.

Please dont turn this thread into a relious thread.

 

[iignotus]

Time is an illusion. Weeks have and will always start with Glyxccyvbiuuntd for me and my people.

 

[Jarska333]

So, is iignotus your name, or your people's name, the Iignotians?
