Date maybe?

 
Ahhh...tomorrow if you dig far enough

 
I'm a bit of a noob when it comes to using the forum calendar...

Bit short notice, but somebody might be interested.

 
My bad - It does state a date at the very top of the page - but it's not obvious that you are in the Diary board as it takes you to the first post, not the top of the page when you click on the supplied link in the notification email

 
An interesting day
