| None in the UK, it's a US thing. In UK we call it the Harvest Festival' In China maybe 'Moon Cake' festival? I think most countries/cultures have a celebration at this time to celebrate a good harvest. Last edited by curmudgeon; 02-Dec-2006 at 02:56. |

| In the US, Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November. Most people like to make it a four-day weekend and take Friday off as a holiday, as well. However, people who work in retail usually have to work, as the Friday after Thanksgiving officially kicks off the Christmas shopping season. |
