The Big Four-Oh

Today is my fortieth birthday, so by way of celebration I have posted a couple of videos. The first is "Something in the Air" by one-hit-wonders Thunderclap Newman. This was the number one single here in the UK on the day that I was born.



The second video is footage of the other great event of July 16, 1969, the launch of the Apollo 11 mission to the Moon.

Well, congratulations (sort of). I turned 40-years-old in June. I think I'm adjusting to it...
