I tried "googling" for significant events in 1961, and I didn't find much other than Yuri Gagarin becoming the 1st person to orbit Earth in Vostok 1, South Africa declaring independence from Britain, and the death of Karl Jung. Some well known people were born in 1961 though: George Clooney; Diana, Princess of Wales; K.D.Lang, and, oh yes, me!

Gosh, I was cute!

While I try and forget my birthday now (how come I can forget other things so easily?), Stevan kindly reminds me, although he was in trouble for thinking I was a year older than I am. This year he gave me something I've always wanted. I know it has very little practical connection to my daily life, but he found this company and very soon my present arrived:

Pressies

I've always been fascinated by things we can't see with the naked eye, so I'm a very happy bunny. But looking at the picture you have to ask yourself where all that cuteness disappeared to.
