#BIRTHDAY: Barbara Dex from Belgium is 49 today You know sometimes when you look at song, and then realise it was in our favourite TV show nearly 30 years ago. It really makes you feel old. I was bumbling along nicely until I noticed today’s song and its […]
#BIRTHDAY: Marian van de Wal from Andorra is 53 today We have some interesting matching of nations. Latvia and Burkina Faso. Ukraine and Congo-Brazzaville. And there’s today’s singer. Maybe not quite as exotic, but just as noteworthy. Today’s birthday girl Marian van de Wal is Dutch by birth, […]
