Hi Warren,

Thanks for the post.

Just to make sure I am on the same page, is the suggestion that a year in which
5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays occur in the month of July is a very rare
occurrence?

Since July always has 31 days, this would only occur in years when July 1st
happened to be a Friday.

So again if I am on the same page, is the suggestion that years in which July 1st
is a Friday are rare?

A quick check revealed that 1st July 2005 was also a Friday and that month had 5
Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays.

A quick check ahead reveals that 1st July 2022 is also a Friday and that
month also has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays.

Best Regards

Gary
