Today! (General Non-Coventry Current Issues)

Today is 12/12/12 And none of us will ever see the likes of a date like this again (next one, 1 Jan 2101!)

Well I never, just wrote a cheque as well and never realised Glad you said though, special day

Always look on the bright side. Next week we have the 20th December, or if you prefer 20:12:2012. It gets even more exciting at twelve minutes past eight in the evening - 20:12:20:12:2012. Doesn't have quite the same ring but . . .

What was the last time a similar thing happened? 11/11/11 perhaps? Before that it must have been 10/10/10 but as MR says it will be a long time before a similar thing happens again. Les

Hi all Number patterns have often amused me. Just a moment in time. A very close friend of mine has her birthday on 21st. She thinks that she was sold short being born on the shortest day, until she realised that it coincided with the longest night. Happy birthday Val, if you are viewing in the meantime. Another member of her family has her birthday on 21st March. Quite an equinox family. So, back to today. I like it.

Happy Broadcast Day. 1-2, 1-2, 1-2 Over and out.

Philip. Read somwhere that the Incas forecast the end of the world will occur on 21/12/2012 so perhaps you should advise your friend to open her presents early. Les

Hi LesMac People have been foretelling the end of the world for as long as the world has existed, but we are still here. I hope to have lunch with Val on that Friday & I do not want to miss that, or her steak & kidney pudding. Norman Clegg (Last of the Summer Wine) thought it was going to end on a Wednesday. I have just left my car at Arbury Peugeot in Bulkington for its full annual service, I will have to tell them to stop doing it! Best wishes to you.

. . . and it's 12:12!! (bugger missed it by a minute! )

Year 1981..... Prince Charles got married Liverpool crowned champions of Europe Australia lost the ashes The Pope died Year 2005..... Prince Charles got married Liverpool crowned champions of Europe Australia lost the ashes The Pope died An amazing coincidence

That is amazing Bernie - I'd never come across those before!

I was going to ask if you wanted me to alter the post's time-stamp - but it was funnier the way you did it !

Even more amazing is that Prince Charles got married 5 times, Australia lost the ashes 5 times, and the Pope died 5 times Oh no, sorry, Liverpool crowned Champions of Europe 5 times - that was it

You can always post a message tonight at twelve minutes past eight, when it will be . . . . 20.12 on 20.12.2012

Hi all Hope that some of you enjoy this.
