Confusion

After a day like yesterday it should be the first of May. On my way to work I was thinking about our arrival in Zuid Limburg, 20 years ago. It was on the day after Queensday. I actually thought it was May 1th.
Volontairy workers were decorating the trees near the Netherlands American Cemetry. I watch them as they tried to create a perfect bow. Soon Liberationday, I thought. But it isn't! There is the confusion. All my live Queensday was at 30 April.
I continued my route. No need yet to find a blip in style of our jubilee.
As I cycled back home the tree-decorating was finished.
