Icelandic holidays

One of the days listed for Feb. 2 is "Bun Day" in Iceland. However, the link to Icelandic holidays does not list "Bun Day" nor does it mention anything specific for Feb. 2. I don't know enough about Icelandic holidays to add anything positive to this entry but will look around a little and see what I come up with.Amaling (talk) 03:15, 16 January 2016 (UTC)

Quarter days

it doesn't look to me from reading the article quarter days that there really is anything celebrated. It's not religious and it's mostly historical. I suggest to be removed from holidays and observances. ~2025-36388-15 (talk) 00:53, 2 February 2026 (UTC)
