    12/02/2021 Today in the UK and other countries using dd/mm/yyyy is a palindrome. Americans and other countries using mm/dd/yyyy will have to wait until 2nd December 22/02/2022 Will also be a palindrome for dd/mm/yyyy countries , but those using mm/dd/yyyy will have a much longer wait until October 12th 2101 (I think)

        YYYY/DD/MM ? Was it not supposed to be YYYY/MM/DD ? I suppose you didn't have your :java::java::java: or your :beer::beer::beer: yet :rolleyes: ;P :-D

              Not sure, but the screen wash bottle held one solid lump of ice this AM, and that's 50-50 with the antifreeze mixture/water. I suspect it's the windchill - it's one of those lazy winds what refuses to go round you ... and it's sucking all the heat out of my office ... It disturbed the cat last night, so he threw up just as we went to bed, so he's then hungry and wants his breakfast - so he did his best to get me out of bed for seven hours. I'm not firing on all cylinders at the moment!
