Hello everyone.
Back from a holiday that covered from Cornwall to Carlisle, and back on the laptop and WiFi!
The On This Day ‘thingy’ was last updated on Sept 7, so what I plan is to do blocks based on each year from 1970-1989 between Sept 8 and 18, rather than a day by day basis, then get back to normal by tomorrow [18th].
So… 1970 Sept 8-18
