Do you ever check who as the same birth date as you ?

To my horror I found that Diane Abbott MP shares the same birth except I am 7 years older. ? I am much happier with Gwyneth Paltrow.

Lorenzo de Medici, Maurice Chevalier, Jesse Owens and Barry White. All typical Virgos of course.

On the first Google site I looked at the only name I recognised was Grace Kelly!

Another search turned up - Rodin, Anne Hathaway, Karl Marx and, oh dear, Charles Manson.

J52, my nephew Ben, Marilyn Manson shock, Perry Fenwick (Billy Mitchell) and (thrillingly) Sam Philips who founded Sun Records.

As I was growing up, I always felt a little 'touched by glamour' to know that I shared my birthday with Elizabeth Taylor.

Though sometimes tempted to say she shared her birthday with me! grin

Rather have him than Hitler.
If I'd been born a day later it would have been the Queen.
As it is, it's Hitler, Gollum, aka, Andy Serkis, or Napoleon 111.

Paul Newman

Hitler.
Am I allowed to mention him on this thread?

Freddie Mercury. Same date and year. He'd be 71' unbelievable.

Welshwife Fri 29-Sept-17 23:21:46

My parents had the same birthday and then I worked with someone who had the same birthday as her husband --- and it was the same date as my parents!

I share mine with Nigel Mansell.

Chewbacca Fri 29-Sept-17 23:09:34

Michael Hesletine and Ayrton Senna (pleased to share a birthday with him)

Oh, and Carl Sagan, I quite like that one to share with.

callgirl1 Fri 29-Sept-17 22:17:19

I haven`t checked lately, but I found years ago that I had the same birthday as actor Robert Newton (Long John Silver) and, much better, Marilyn Monroe.

Lisalou Fri 29-Sept-17 22:16:52

It would appear that the only famous person I share birhdays with is Hedy Lamarr - the rest of the ones i can find are unknown, to me at least!!!
Oh well, I have two dear friends with whom I celebrate my birthday and that is good enough for me!

Proud to share mine with Machiavelli.
