PS Doesn't show 26.2.31 but it does if you put the date in it had 1932 and I then clicked on 'when you were conceived' and I got the 1931. R.

Re: The number one song on the day you were born
I thought it was `Run Rabbit Run` we had that record before the war , the only one we had, the gramophone had a big horn on top, HMV, and you had to wind it up, then the man from the Parish made us sell it before he would give us any relief money when Dad was out of work so I never heard it again.
Cheers
Brian.

Thanks Marian, that's a double whammy! Margaret was born on 5/9/30. Just before the opening of Sydney Harbour Bridge that my mother carried me along to see.
