Morning colours...
Apparently, today was National Hugging Day... no-one unexpected offered to hug me, and I didn't see any other hugging people so presumably the idea didn't really catch on in this part of the country...
On this date in previous years:-
Louis XVI was exucated by guillotine in 1793
"Wizard of Oz" premiered in New York in 1903
447 German bombers attacked London in 1944
649 British bombers attacked Magdeburg that same night in 1944
PanAm Boeing 747 took its first flight from New York to London in 1970
Italy legalised abortion in 1977; and
It was Black Monday in the stock markets in 2008 - FTSE 100 had its biggest ever one-day points fall.
You can tell I didn't have a very exciting day today, can't you? :)
