I have been tagged by a certain Mr. Kenyon, and considering my lack of posting recently, I think it’s only fair for me to comply!

Princess Diana’s death – 31st August 1997
When I heard about this, I had gotten up early (I was slightly younger then than I am now…), and happened to catch it on the news. I woke up my parents because it was obviously a big deal. But after that I wasn’t really too bothered.

Margaret Thatcher’s Resignation – 22nd November 1990
Even though I was only four years old, I organised possibly the biggest party anyone had ever saw. We congoed, we played strip snap, and we drank yards of milk. It was fantastic. Oh, and if the bat does get a state funeral, I wager that at least 40% of people who turn up will be there just to make sure that she has actually left us

Attack on the twin towers – 11 September 2001
I was off school ill this day, when I was in year 10. I watched the second plane hit the tower live on TV. I guess that makes me a part of history

England’s World Cup Semi Final against Germany – 4 July 1990
I guess I might have been near the TV screen, but other than that I couldn’t tell you

President Kennedy’s Assassination – 22 November 1963
The grassy Knoll. But no one knows that.

I won’t tag anyone to do this – that’d be a little cheeky considering my absence!
