So was Mrs G, so you're in good company  :)

I'm a Friday child.

Our 3 children were all born on a Wednesday, which I presume must have been 'induction day' at the old Queen Mother's Maternity in Glasgow back in 1979, 1982 and 1988.

I was mildly surprised at the number of people who didn't know thier birth day.

I've always known my birth day - Thursday.

My mother told me that Thursday's child has far to go. Well, I've been to Japan - does that count?

Actually, I have to think about the days on which my sons were born. They were both born in the BP Hospital in Little Aden when Aden was a British Colony, so they have British birth certificates.
If I remember correctly, they were born on the first day of the week, which is Saturday, but by the time my second son was born two years later, for some reason the weekend days had changed - that sounds daft I know!  ... I'll google it:

Okay first son born on a Mondaysecond on a Saturday.

Now I remember, between their births, BP had decided to keep the Moslem weekend instead of the British.
