I can't remember what I was doing at the time most of these happened I was either working or sleeping

It doesn't mention Englands World cup win in 66, how can that be missed out.

I'm surprised my wedding wasn't mentioned in July 66, it was a big occasion in our house. it was the week before England's World Cup win but I went from the registry to the pub and Korea were beating Portugal on the telly in the Gents in Cleveland Street.

Maybe it was someone of our age who wrote the list. Actually, during the whole of the 60's I was either abroad or at sea so there's only the odd main thing I even knew happened, the moon landing being one of them.
