The Google doodle on my computer today just showed birthday candles. How Google knew it was my birthday, I'll never know.
Why would an Englishman be annoyed he couldn't get Red Rose in Old Blighty when they've got Twinings? :-)
Great stuff Wanswheel....Argentina, Peru, India, Iceland, Greece, ...what the heck? who decides and why? I thought the Google Doodle was everywhere but it's not. Oh well.
As the Englishman in the Red Rose commercial used to say "Only in Canada eh?....pity"
Several countries. Why doesn’t Google display it in the States? Did Trudeau endorse Hillary or something?

"Stand fast, Craigellachie!"
Todays Google Doodle is of Sir Sandford Fleming, the inventor of Standard Time, the engineer who designed the Intercolonial Railway and the Canadain Pacific Railway to the West. Famous for his last spike picture in Craigellachie, British Columbia 1885.
Nice. Very nice.
