Hey, I just got thinking, what happens if you are born on the 29th of February? You only get a birthday every 4 years? What a cock up that would be. Anyway the only reason i was thinking was because a mate of mines bday is the 28th, and for some reason i thought of this.. So yer, does anyone know anyone born on teh 29th of Feb? What would happen? Celebrate your bday on the 28th instead? Rather interesting.

Under the assumnption that you age 1 year each 365.25 days, shouldn't someone born on the 29th celebrate their birthday on march 1 in a non-leap year, not the 28th (which would be 1 day early)?

I know someone who got married on the 29th of Feb one year. Not quite sure why? Make the years of marriage seem sorter?

my missus sister was born 29th. afaik she celebrates on the 28th. When she turned 18 and wanted to go clubbing she could get entry to clubs after midnight of the 28th, or something.

i would have thought the 1st of march would be more appropriate.
