Budapest, 1978. August 20th is Hungary's National Day. It is usually marked with a large and specatular firework display in Budapest attended by huge crowds. Except last year when the display was cancelled due to storms being forecast to hit the capital. The storms missed Budapest, but that didn't stop the the head of National Meteorological Service from being fired. Typical of life in Orbánistan.

I'e come across stories that a twittering #wren alerted #Roman soldiers to where #SaintStephen was hiding, but those strike me as a post hoc attempt to explain why #WrenDay and #StStephensDay are on the same day.

You rarely see #WrenBoys nowadays. That's a real shame, it was a really fun tradition. Also #charity. Charity is good.
