Pluto Demoted
I’ve decided to honour National Day’s Not Saints days or but all the odd, weird, funny National Days we hear about on the web.
So today is #NationalDay that saw the Pluto demoted from a planet to a dwarf planet.
Like most people I have a passing interest in space & the solar system, (yes I also watch Star Trek too,) & when I was at school we learned that Pluto was a planet. The rhymes I remember using is
- My Very Easy Method Just Speeds Up Naming Planets
- My Very Evil Mummy Just Sat Upon Nathan’s Potty
- My Very Educated Mother Just Saved Us Nine pence
Now of course it must be something different & according to Google one of the most popular is
- My Very Excellent Mother Just Sent Us Nacho’s
Very on trend mentioning Nacho’s. I think it’s sad that Pluto is no longer a recognised planet, as even though it’s small or dwarf, it is still called one. To me it is similar as saying that a human dwarf is not a person, of a Bonsai tree isn’t a real tree – of course they are, why can’t Pluto be left alone.
What do you think of this matter? Are you a Trekkie?

Another new fact for me
My neices are loving me telling all about your special days
Glad you are enjoying them. I love all weird facts, but can never remember them when I need to! Jane x
