I wish it went back far enough for me to look at what happened on the day I was born.

Aww, my muvver was there (not at your birth!).
It was the day before her 18th birthday.

Must remember to get her sumfink!

OHG - that looks like a fab site - but what am I supposed to put in the Search Our Archive box?

I tried to search for my birthday but it keeps saying I must put a valid search term in that box - but what is a valid search term?

Maybe the sun has frazzled my brains

Oh - and a happy b'day to you

Happy Birthday OHG - and happy birthday to me too!
