Yep, missed it.

Remembered about an hour before and then promptly forgot again. Oh well, just have to wait for 11:11 on 11/11/11 frown

Just thinking about this a little further, I (and I would think anyone else who is reading this forum) have only two more chances to mark such a time/date in my life. There is 11:11 0n 11/11/11 and 12:12 on 12/12/12 and then that's it for me. No way I will make it to the next opportunity smirk

Better make the most of 'em, then! smile

Or, better, yet ... forget all that [censored] and endeavour to make the best of each and every day!

I suppose 1/3/13 doesn't count? We could all enjoy a lot more, then!

Yes, I like that. Surely palindromic dates must have at least as much mystical significance as simple repeated numbers.
I like 22/02/2022, too!

My son got this text earlier this evening...
Quote:
This month has 5 Fridays, 5 Saturdays and 5 Sundays. This only happens once every 823 years


Click to reveal..
Although with a little research... I found it happens every time the first day of a 31 day month is a Friday. So it will happen again next July smile

I know January this year seems a life away, but take a look at the calendar.
