Titanic Remembrance Day Falls on World Art Day?🚢🎭

I saw the play
'The Last Ship' on April 14th and realized that the Titanic hit an iceberg on that date and then sank on April 15th.
Sting speaks on his musical, The Last Ship
'The Last Ship' isn't a play about the Titanic though; it's about a fictional ship called the Utopia.
But according to a kind of an AI search (and I don't use AI ... Google tends to feed you AI searches, whether you want them or not) the Utopia was also a ship that in 1853, transported immigrants to Australia, specifically Queensland.
"The 1st Immigrant Ship to sail directly from Plymouth, England 23 July 1862 to Keppel Bay, Queensland on 6 November 1862, Rockhampton, Queensland on 11 November 1862 with 324 "hand-picked" immigrants.
The immigrants were primarily of English and Scottish descent with a few from Ireland."
'The Last Ship' was the first musical to be performed in The Glasshouse Theatre in the Queensland Performing Arts Centre complex and is right up the road from the old South Brisbane Dry Dock, which is now the Queensland Maritime Museum.
To me personally, the word "Glasshouse" reminds me of the Glass House Mountains in Queensland.
"On 17 May 1770, the hills were named the "Glass House Mountains" by explorer Lieutenant James Cook. The peaks reminded him of the glass furnaces in his home county of Yorkshire."
So, was it just a coincidence, or a synchronicity that I saw
 'The Last Ship' on April 14th?

McDonald’s Day Falls on National Anime Day as Well as Purple Up Day? 🍔💜

I went down to my local
Mc Donalds today and bought a HUNTR/X meal and a Happy meal, because I saw it was 
Mc Donalds Day and Anime Day today. 
Oddly enough, the HUNTR/X meal came with a purple sauce and today is also Purple Up Day.
I had been thinking of seeing the new Super Mario movie, only because I've watched a lot of Jake Kotze's synch videos about the 
Super Mario films and TV shows, without actually having watched any movies or TV episodes, but I really can't be bothered after reading the reviews.
But as I was waiting for my
Happy meal, I looked at the 
Mc Donalds site to see that there were 12 toys you could collect and I thought to myself if I get the Toad character I have to go to the cinema and watch the movie, but not today, as I had a bit to do at home today.
But what are the odds of that happening today anyway?
Every April 15th
The odds were 12-1 that I wouldn't get Toad and have to go, but I did.

Oh, and my McDonalds order number was 116, and when turned upside down is 911:-)

How to Celebrate National Donate a Book Day?📕📖📚🐝

I donated a bag of
books and a few magazines to a street library today, while on my way to see a play called 'The Last Ship', written by and starring Sting.
From the book 'Share'
One of the books I donated to the street library was a book called 'Share', which was mainly full of quotes and self-motivational tips.
And I donated the two 'Grass Roots' magazines I wrote about in this recent post -

I also donated my two
C.S. Lewis books to the street library and noticed a C.S. Lewis quote in the 'Share' book when I was flicking through it for the last time:-)
I've read a lot of quotes of C.S. Lewis lately, it seems.
How to Celebrate D.E.A.R. Day? 📖👀💭🦁
I even took back a book titled 'Vernon God Little' from a street library at Mt. Cotton that I had donated months ago and placed it in the West End street library with my other books last night, as nobody in Mt. Cotton seems to be interested in reading it ... maybe understandably?
I did write a post about reading it last November -
Every April 14th
Oh, and today was also 'Puffin Day' while on the subject of books;-)
