John's bread tie collection makes unique calendar Team ready to rally

“Sometimes, Dad needed to head to the store four to five days prior to the date he was chasing.

“Sometimes the supermarket was out of his bread of choice or out of bread altogether.

“If he went to the store a day late or a day early, he would miss the date he was chasing. Any missed dates meant waiting a full year for another opportunity.

“And each year there are fewer dates to collect, so it has been increasingly harder for him to complete the collection.

“He even has the elusive leap year bread tie,” Bernadette said.

It has taken John over 30 years to procure this collection which is proudly contained in a display folder in calendar format, and now he only needs one more bread tie to complete his collection.

“He is so close. His next opportunity to complete the calendar is coming up in a month's time.

“The last bread tie he needs for his collection is August 22.”
