Feb 9, 2016 at 9:33 | comment | added | None | You do not need to to have the definite article here, it is just a possibility that denotes a formal way of writing/speaking. Note you can have it in "l'un de ces jours" just as well. I expect the use of the optional definite article here could be justified by the determining role played by the presence of the demonstrative "ces" or the possessive "nos". | |
