I am not sure if that is the case nowadays but not so long ago there used to be a flood of calendars and diaries brought out by firms of repute. Collecting them was kind of a craze and then comparing notes as to how many each had collected. I was no exception.
I was working for a multi national and they had those great scenes from Switzerland - twelve of them. I was kind of chased after by many of my friends and family hoping I would present them with one.
Do you have any hanging on your walls?

No longer..I only have one that I get from the place I go for appointments.
I really miss those days of lovely calendars and diaries.
I bet you have quite a bunch of lovely ones.

I have one hanging in there in my kitchen.. it's s actually a panchang by Thakur Prasad to keep track of auspicious Hindu days..nothing fancy about.
I am still crazy about those diaries though. I get them from our financial advisor every new year

In those days I had a collection of diaries that I never used and so is the story with calendars.
I have a calendar only with numbers hanging in the passage.
