Hi

Just for interest:

Did you realise that today was an unusual sequential day :?: At 12.34pm and 56.7 seconds, combined with the date, 8/9/10, it completed the pattern of 12345678910. The next time this will take place is at 01.23am on 4.5.67 - in 2067. I don't think I will be around to see that!!

Palindromic days are where the date reads the same forwards and backwards. My twins were born on 17/4/71, which I always thought must be significant in some way. Well, it was my lucky day anyway!

Joan

    October 10th this year will be 10/10/10, followed by November 11th next year then December 12 the year after. Then that won't work any more in our lifetimes. 01 November will be palendromic too, 01/11/10. None of these are as good as yours tho, joanlawson. DD

    I've just read these to my eldest daughter who said, quite correctly, "You only like those because they're tidy". As if there's something WRONG with tidiness!
