Vaisakhi is approaching! Its on the 13th April (Friday)

Cant wait...

Any plans ppl?!

For those that dont know:

Vaisakhi is the day on which just over 304 years ago the Sikh Nation - the Khalsa (The Pure Ones) was born and Sikhs were given a clear identity and a code of conduct to live by. The event was led by the last living Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, who baptised the first Sikhs using sweet nectar called Amrit. Around the world at Vaisakhi time, Sikhs reflect on the values taught to them by their Gurus and celebrate the birth of the Khalsa.

---------------------------------------------

Vaisakhi is also a seasonal festival of the Punjab, a festival of joy and happiness and the beginning of the Sikh New Year. It coincides with the harvesting season and symbolises wealth and prosperity to the majority of farmers in the Punjab. With crops reaping, the rural countryside of Punjab becomes rich and farmers are ready to spend their hard earned cash. New land is bought and farmers also have a few days to socialise and relax. Local events take place around the villages of Punjab and it's a time for people to have fun at local melas.

Im doing my annual southall mission…it’s a shame that the police block southall of at night time in Vaisakhi though and you have to prove that you’re a resident of southall if you want to get in...

anyone else going to be at southall? ...if yes, you should come and say hello or something...
