I see that in Japan it will be "Labour Thanksgiving Day" and seems to be set up to coincide with the US one across the dateline. How does that work, I mean, what happens? Do they give thanks to Labour for all the hard work? Or do they give thanks for having a job? Or what? I have to say, and not that the Japanese should care, that I liked the older more traditional holidays like Boys Day and so on. At least, they looked good in the movies etc.
