      Can't remember ... but I was in College classroom in Alabama when JFK was shot and in our apartment on the IoW on 9/11.

        In my case...sitting in exactly the same spot that I was when JFK was shot, and just a few feet -four perhaps - away from the exact spot in which I was born!

          I remember sitting huddled around the black and white TV, curtains pulled to keep out the sun, I think daytime TV was not that normal then.
          My last 7 week summer holiday from school.
          Happy days.:smile:
