Argyle Day Weve all got a favourite knitwear pattern, right? Heck, most people suffer sleepless nights trying to prioritise plaid over tartan. Well this is the day where argyle fans get to come out loud and proud. Yes, finally you can dig out all thirty-six pairs of socks youve hidden at the back of the wardrobe since Christmas and pair them off with the spoils of raiding your grandads golfing gear. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/argyle-day/Bubble Bath Day What better way to unwind than with a hot, soapy bubble bath? Bubble Bath Day encourages you to relax, so light the candles, play some soothing music and lose yourself in a favourite book for an hour or so. https://www.daysoftheyear.com/days/bubble-bath-day/

A nice bubble bath, some cozy argyles and a box of English toffee could spread much joy!
