Why didn't I know this? Did you?
I am 70 years old so how come I never knew this interesting fact about me and you for that matter???
On Sunday I put a photo of my David up on Face Book wishing him Happy Birthday and one of my 'friends' a real Pedant! asked me if it really was his birth 'Day' as apposed to his Birth 'Date'.
Mmmm... I checked, David was born on a Sunday and his 73 Birthday fell on a Sunday... so to answer you correctly Brian... Yes! :-)
Now this got me thinking and I can't stand 'thinking' about silly things, I just have to work it out to get it over with... so I have!!
Did you know we have a pattern of 6-5-6-11-6-5-6-11 years (or similar) between celebrating our actual Birth Dates on our actual Birth Days.
Phew! I'm so glad I found that out before it was too late!!!
I was Born on a Monday in 1945
1951 = 6yo - 6 years Monday
1956 = 11yo - 5 after last Monday
1962 = 17yo - 6 "
1973 = 28yo - 11 "
1979 = 34yo - 6 "
1984 = 39yo - 5 "
1990 = 45yo - 6 "
2001 = 56yo - 11 "
2007 = 62yo - 6 "
2012 = 67yo - 5 "
2018 = 73yo - 6 "
2029 = 84yo - 11 "
So this is my pattern then of course I wondered if it was the same for all of us so I checked Gwilym's 'Days' against his .Dates'... yes the same! Why don't you check yours? HERE!
Born on a Friday 1980
1986 = 6yo - 6
1997 = 17yo - 11
2003 = 23yo - 6
2008 = 28yo - 5
2014 = 34yo - 6
2025 = 45yo - 11
2031 = 51yo - 6
2036 = 56yo - 5
2042 = 62yo - 6
2053 = 73yo - 11
See... the same except Gwil was born in a different cycle than I was... if that's what you call it!
