Default Ha ha to those of you that were too young to celebrate Millenium!!

And when I say celebrate I mean properly. Generally anybody younger than 23 will not have celebrated properly, (so ha ha, you missed out on the biggest party in the world for a long long time)

and if you are younger than about 16/17 now, you won't even remember that much about millenium or 1999. (Tough luck guys you missed out on a lot!)


Just had to say how glad I was to be alive and old enough to remember 2 different milleniums.

How are you old enough to remember two? I'm pretty sure a millenium is every hundred years.

I had my first girlfriend in 1999, so I think I properly lived it! LOL1
I know some people my age use to vow to have a girlfriend or kiss a girl before the end of the millenium!

I was 9 at the time, I was at home with my family, watching the TV, wondering if technology would stop working. Yay for false alarms!
