Am watching a recording of the opening ceremony at the moment with laptop on my knee.
Was aware of the date due to olympics but also Stephen has wedding to take today because of the date

Watched the opening ceremony of the Olympics ... wow so very colourful and the pyrotechnics were awesome

Big hugs,

Had great fun when dating documents today . Would usually write the year as 2008 but decided to do it 08.08.08. last year my daughter was bridesmaid at her best friend’s wedding on 07.07.07. GH

I did Maggie - but only because the olympics are starting today - did you know that the Chinese think all the 8s are extremely lucky and that there has been a mad rush to the registery office for couples to be married today and that they have also tried to time their having their babies for today which I think is extremely unpredictable as babies have a habit of turning up early or late - Michelle x

I work for a Chinese based bank - so can’t get away from the eights! You know, the one that advertises with two red fans

On a sadder note, it would have been my sisters 45th Birthday today.

Aww sorry to hear about your sister hunny (((hugs))) maggie

Yes - Brett Favre only plays in a number four shirt, he’s even kept it now he’s moved to the Jets!

Nigel Mansell always had 7 on his car and quite a few soccer players have insisted on the 7 shirt.

Talking about coincidences - I read your blog the other day - quite spooky how similar we are Melanie (or are you a Mel too?)

Thanks Maggie. It was a long time ago Maggie, she was born in 1963, same day as the Great Train Robbery!

Oh my, you won’t forget that then hunny
