Don"t suppose I will be around to see that ? (laugh)

So, what of significance should we be doing at 9.10 pm?

Elegran Wed 11-Dec-13 14:37:06

Too late Miceelf We've missed our chance. We'll never get another.

gillybob Wed 11-Dec-13 14:52:08

Yes MiceElf Elegran is right.

In our office we all stood to attention at 9.10.11.12.13 !

Quite what we were marking I don't know, but I had a giggle anyway !

Glad I'm not alone. I love these consecutive dates. Occasionally feel very childish but posted my Xmas cards late last night in the hope that they would have that date on.one year I tried to get my pooter to send greetings at1.01.01.01.2001

Nonu Wed 11-Dec-13 16:51:11

Gilly, Stansgran loved both your posts !

I had an email from my cousin today to say that he DS's wife had a little boy yesterday - and then she pointed out that no one would forget his birthday: 11.12.13!

OldBiddy Thu 12-Dec-13 20:02:46

I can remember when it was twenty-six minutes to one on 5th June 1978 - 12.34 5.6.78. I was working in local government at the time, but can't recall us standing to attention, gillybob . Today is my first GC's first birthday - 12.12.12 is a date I will most definitely not forget!
