Joint celebrations

The RogueThe Rogue Shipmate

A comment on another thread made me wonder who or what do we share our birthdays with. The date, not the year.

I share my birthday with Alfred Noble and the Battle of Trafalgar.

    I share my birthday with Harrison Ford, and John Dee (Elizabeth I’s astrologer). They are the ones that I know without looking up.

    My birthday is the Feast of the Ass. (Though maybe that only beats National Gummi Bear Day on the North American side of the Pond. :lol: )

    I share my birthday with Marc Antony, Benedict Arnold, Albert Schweitzer, Sterling Holloway (the voice of Winnie the Pooh), Allen Toussant, Faye Dunaway, Nina Totenburg, T Bone Burnett, LL Cool J, Jason Bateman and Grant Gustin (TV’s the Flash).

  • Mark Boucher, Les Ames, Tibby Cotter, Mithali Raj, Ken Funston, and the legend that was Trevor "Barnacle" Bailey. I can't play cricket even half as well as any of them, but wind me up and I can mane a decent fist of swearing like Ozzy Osbourne.

  • King George VI died on my birthday, and it was also the birthday of a favourite great-aunt whose name I share.

    I’m celebrating the repair and complete recovery of my hip (broken falling off my bike) thirteen years ago.

    I shared my birthday with my Great-uncle Ken. He would send me a £3 postal order.
  • What a great uncle! In any group of thirty or so there is a good chance statistically that two will share a birthday.
  • I share a birthday with a famous rapper.
  • NenyaNenya All Saints Host, Ecclesiantics & MW Host
    I shared a birthday with a girl in my class at school and we always called each other "Twin." I think of her when my birthday comes round and always wonder if she remembers me in the same way.

    Kate Bush, Henry Moore and Arnie!

    That's pretty good! The going rate was 10/- when I was a little younger.

    I doubt that we have anything else in common though!

    On the show Truth or Consequences, Bob Barker used to ask bad jokes. I remember this one from the mid-seventies.

    Born on the Feast of the Immaculate Conception (which my older siblings always thought particularly apt), I share a birthday with Sibelius, Mary Queen of Scots, Jim Morrison and Sinead O'Connor - and John Lennon died.
