No it isn't. It can't be 2021 Week 53 because it's the same week as 2021 Week 52 It is no longer 2021 so it can't have that in the title It can't be 2022 Week 1 because it doesn't have the first Thursday of 2022 in it Next week is 2022 Week 1 because it does have the first Thursday of 2022 in it Therefore the little stub of a week which constitutes this weekend is 2022 Week 0 Martin agrees with me

And since then we have stuck firmly to the rules.... unless you're Ralph!

Remind me why it's a Thursday that's the important point again?

Do I? I can't remember. So we're in a week that consists entirely of weekend? Martin

It's because it's the midpoint of the ISO standard week - Mon-Wed before, Fri-Sun after. So wherever Thursday falls gives the majority of the week to that bit. Although going by the rules we dug out, I think currently we're still in week 52 because Jan 1st is a Saturday. Week 0 is used by computer languages that can't cope with the madness. But I'm really really not going back into all that again. Week 0 is fine! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_week_dateFirst weekThe ISO 8601 definition for week 01 is the week with the first Thursday of the Gregorian year (i.e. of January) in it. The following definitions based on properties of this week are mutually equivalent, since the ISO week starts with Monday: - It is the first week with a majority (4 or more) of its days in January.
- Its first day is the Monday nearest to 1 January.
- It has 4 January in it. Hence the earliest possible first week extends from Monday 29 December (previous Gregorian year) to Sunday 4 January, the latest possible first week extends from Monday 4 January to Sunday 10 January.
- It has the year's first working day in it, if Saturdays, Sundays and 1 January are not working days.
If 1 January is on a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday, it is in W01. If it is on a Friday, it is part of W53 of the previous year. If it is on a Saturday, it is part of the last week of the previous year which is numbered W52 in a common year and W53 in a leap year. If it is on a Sunday, it is part of W52 of the previous year.

"well done for sorting the week out Phil" Oh right, I thought you were referring to previous years' debates when you said I agreed with you. I was just saying well done for getting in there promptly after midnight, knowing you'd want to change something. I wasn't thinking about _what_ you were changing. To be honest I don't really care as long as we agree this is now the second year of the decade and the 22nd year of the 21st Century. Martin

The only one of those statements you need is the last one really. The first three have to be true if you follow the last one.

Went to Asda grabbed several storage tubs some to replace damaged ones and a few additional ones, all mostly full, but the room is looking tidier.
May need one or two more...

We don't have year zero, we have week 53!!! -Ralph *TECHNICALLY* It's still week 52 Also: although the week which starts at midnight is the one after 2021 Week 52 it very definitely is 2022 Week 1 and NOT 2021 Week 53. And 2022 Week 21 is not a 2021 week under any circumstances much to my regret.
