Bradman Day
As some of you may be aware, Don Bradman would be turning 100 this year if he were still alive. He was born on 27 August 1908, and the simple thing to do, if we wanted to have a day to celebrate and remember Bradman, would be to do so on 27 August 2008.
But Andrew Samson suggested last year a much more appropriate date: 6 August 2008. Why the sixth? Because Bradman would have been 99.94 years old on that day.

Very good. I wonder if we can work in a devious English doctor that denies DGB that extra day of life.
