Forgot about pne of the more of the more important dates in British history
20th Janurary was the 750th anniversary of Simon de Monteforts Parliament being held
Never mind. Another 362 days and you can celebrate the 751st! :D
Can you remind closer to the time please
Will do.
Forgetting an anniversary is a sure fire way to ensure testicle removal
Did I say that this was the anniversary of Robert Burns birthd........(oh, wait, I did have already .......) (I knew I should have waited for this thread to start ...mutter mutter ...)
And, apparently, on this day in 1915, Alexander Graham Bell in New York and Thomas Watson in San Francisco made a record telephone transmission (I think it was a wrong number).
How do you dial a wrong number when you are making the first ever telephone call :P
Folk invariably make mistakes with new technology. :D

I imagined the first call would have been someone asking Alexander Graham Bell if he'd like them to make a claim on his behalf for mis-sold PPI or asking if he'd be willing to take part in a consumer survey. :)

Good morning sir!

So not the wedding anniversary or her birthday? You lucky, lucky, lucky beggar!!!!
270th anniversary of the Battle of Culloden this year.
If I didn't have enough on my plate already I'd maybe do something in miniature to celebrate.
