Searching: Nationality start days from St Jean

Some time back there was a thread about how geography and the realities of international travel mean that some nationalities are more likely to start their journey from St Jean on particular days of the week. For example, Canadians appear to be more likely to start on Saturday.

Can anybody help me find it? [drats! I thought I had good search skills but I just could not find the relevant thread]

many thanks

The focus is on reducing the risk of failure through being well prepared. 2nd ed.
The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
Thanks Ivar! 114 pilgrims from Israel!! Most Israeli Christians are Greek Othodox and have never heard of Santiago de Campostela, Athos yes but not Santiago-the Armenians are well aware since their Saint James Cathedral is situated on the spot where they believe Saint James was martyred but a majority of their people here are students in the Armenian Seminary from Armenia or Turkey and have not the means to go, meaning thatwhile most here have also never heard of the Camino and local knowledge of Spain ends with 1492 or maybe Barça (shh! don't mention this in Galacia) still and all, 114 fellow Israeli Jews are proving the appeal and interfaith attraction of the Camino-a warm figure.
