Noticed in MCC last night that some shops are advertising Mothers Day - is it really celebrated on a Monday here?

In the UK, Mothering Sunday (which always falls on a Sunday so as not to confuse us!) is the 4th Sunday of Lent. So, not a fixed date, but a fixed day.

It is not on a fixed day of the week, it is a fixed day. Arab countries celebrate Mothers Day on March 21st.

I saw that too 21st March... didn't realise it was a Monday until just! Thought it was a Friday or Saturday! @Emma9 Europe (except UK) and US celebrate Mother's day in May and UK's def 3rd April, sent MIL's card from a UK website so they have it right ;)
