Freegle Doodles

Freegle Doodles are the Freegle Logos that have been altered to celebrate particular events and add a little more interest to the Freegle site.

We are taking our lead from Google Doodles

Who can come up with Doodles?

Anyone can come up with a doodle, see the guidelines below. So please have a go, you will be credited for any doodles published.

What events is Freegle having doodles for?

As we are just trying this out we thought that we'd keep the list fairly modest in number. If we get a lots of people wanting to doodle for Freegle we can expand the list. I've started with a short list of days well known (I think ) to the UK public, it looks a bit heavy on teh saints days but they tend to mark a day for that country to celebrate. However if you think other days should be on the list drop me a line at jc4stuff@hotmail.com.

Jan 1st - New Year's Day

Feb 14th - St.Valentines Day Feb 21st - Shrove Tuesday (Pancake day) Mar 1st - St. Davids Day (Patron Saint of Wales) Mar 17th - St. Patrick's Day (Patron Saint of Ireland) Mar 18th - Mothering Sunday (Mother's Day) April 22nd - Earth Day April 23rd - St.George's Day (Patron Saint of England) June 5th - World Environment Day http://www.unep.org/wed/intro/intro.html June 18th-24th - National Recycle Now Week http://www.recyclenowpartners.org.uk/index.html Oct 31st - All Saints / Halloween Nov 5th - Guy Fawkes/ Bonfire Night Nov 30th - St.Andrew's Day (Patron Saint for Scotland) Dec 25th - Christmas Day

There are loads of other events and dates we could add, but we need the artists to Mar 8th - International Women's Day June 1st-7th National Volunteer's Week And there are plenty more, I particularly like, my favourite being "National Doughnut Week" !
