Not the old school song, but today, 2/4/22, is the fortieth anniversary of Argentina invading the Falklands

I remember so well as I was living in Germany and our neighbours, who we used to socialise with, had family staying from Argentina !  It was very frosty but after a few drinks the parties heated up.  I was glad to see them leave  :grin:
