on the day I was born...
« on: February 06, 2023, 08:25:59 PM »
On the day I was born... The Bee Gees were at the top of the UK singles chart with "Massachusetts" (I always think of Kenny Everett parodying with "massive chew sets").

But more relevant to the forum, Jan Rose Kasmir attended an anti war march and was photographed by Marc Ribaud.

So, just for fun, over to you... any famous/iconic photographs captured on significant dates in your life?

The only noteworthy thing that happened on my birthday was a small red haired bundle of joy screaming his head off at the hospital  ;D

Great idea for a thread but the only interesting things about my birthday is that it is St Patrick's day -which means I get lots of free pints of Guiness given to me and I am one of estimated 109,557,830 babies that were born
Also I am 294 dog years old
