💬 So much for Yury's Day, Granny! - goes a Russian saying referring to any failed expectation. It ain't about Gagarin (!) -> in times of yore Yury's Day (Dec 9) was the only time of the year when peasants could change landowners. To everyone's disappointment it was forbidden. https://t.co/TjFb2RsYWL — PolitiTweet.org
