What a disturbing thread:p

I'm a new years eve child.

So does that make you an April Fool :eek:

Nothing special around my time but there was a earthquake in Bucharest around that time that killed more than 1,500 people. Doubt it was related as I'm sure the tremors didn't reach that far!

Don't you mean June 1984?

And Euro '84 was on. What sexy footballers might have got your mam in the mood back then? Sorry but it's an important question.

I was born in July, was supposed to be born in August. Prematurely I believe because it was not really frowned upon to smoke during pregnancy as it is now. My parents married the December. I probably caused the wedding :pac:

Another three followed so I its all dudley.

February 1985 means May 1984...
May 1984 anyone? I know of absolutely no event or occasion at that time that would result in such amorous motivations...

I was born in mid November as well so a result of some Valentines shenanigans. However, my birthday was also my mum's 30th birthday so my grandparents were also getting up to something on Valentines day back in 1943.

I'm going to actually blame it all on Hiltler now then as I know he droped a couple of bombs on my grandparents gaff during the war, although I cannot remember when, and as a result of that my grandad got leave from his posting in Wales. That could have been round that time for all I know.

Bet nobody expected this thread to get Godwin'ed?

RobAMerc · 19-05-2008 04:37PM

nothing of interest - my ma's just a slapper and will give it up any old time !

RubyXI · 19-05-2008 04:40PM

My birthdays mid-july so conceived mid-october???
All i can think of is my sisters birthday is mid october.

KnifeWRENCH · 19-05-2008 04:50PM

I was born December 11th but was due December 16th (which coincidentally is my mam's birthday!)
Anyways, having looked up March 1989 on Wikipedia, it was a ridiculously dull month. So I guess a lot of people were doin' it coz there was nothing else going on at the time to distract them!

Maybe they were celebrating the birth of myself, which happened as a result of a boring September afternoon.

I'm guessing, it must have been the colon surgery.

I was born in Mid-November, which is a nicely co-incidental to about nine months after the feast of Saint Valentine. I'm sure the old pair had a nice evening.

Exactly the same with me.

It's kinda horrible to even think about really though!

Was told by mum and dad that I was a June Bank Holiday baby, it's a bit creepy that they were so precise with the timing, I only missed my dads birthday by just over a day.

Dudess · 19-05-2008 06:50PM

A couple of people have posted that their birthdays are early September so their parents must have got up to some bad behaviour for the new year... Well yes, if you were a month premature. If not, you were conceived in early December - around the same time as Jesus actually...

Try guessing before you click that link.

Just a load of waffle as far as I could tell before getting bored of reading it, but this bit did catch my eye:

...it was fitting that she be completely free of sin for expressing her fiat.

Is that the same Fiat that owns Ferrari etc? :eek:

Your Birthday, and nine months before
