Today there is nothing interesting happening in my life. I looked through the window and nothing moved - bar the rain. There were no cars in the road and the birds were hidden in the hedges. There were drips on yellow hazel catkins. However there were interesting events on this day in past times. Prince Charles, Duke of Cornwall announced his engagement to Lady Diana Spencer. That was in 1981. This photo was published in the Royal Calendar. How is that photo connected with the next picture? The old man is Pope Gregory XIII. On this day in 1582 he changed the calendar. Out went the old Julian calendar and in came his new Gregorian calendar. He introduced the leap year with one more day in February every four years.
