Pope Benedict XVI is due to visit Birmingham in September for the beatification of Cardinal Newman. So far so good, but there have been stories of the prodigious amount of souvenirs that will be available to help pay for the visit (about £12 million)! The latest item is a football style shirt that is half England football shirt and half Vatican flag! I wonder if you can get it with a number and your name on the back. I hope so, I'll have number 664 saying "I Live Next Door to Him!"
Your Saturday questions are:-
- Who claimed eastern Australia for Britain today in 1770 naming it New
South Wales? - In which English city was "Sex and the City" star Kim Cattrall (right) born today in 1952?
- Which band released "Be Here Now", the UK's fastest ever selling album, today in 1997?
