1956

by

I was born at 4:55pm on December 15th 1956 at the Fiveways Hospital, Yeovil.

Other events of the day included:

  • Israeli troops invading the Sinai Peninsula.
  • The Suez Crisis occurring.
  • Japan joining the UN.
  • Soviet troops entering Hungary, with martial law declared.
  • The first transatlantic cable telephone service beginning.

Elvis Presley had FOUR hit singles in the Top 40 though, on the 15th, Guy Mitchell held the number one position with “Singing the Blues”.
