Jordan.

I mean, it shouldn't bother me that we are the exact same age, but for some reason it does!

Herman Goering, Des O'Connor, Heather Mills, Mel C and Pixie Lott. And David Mitchell - not the funny one, the author.

I was born on the same day in the same year as Kylie. Me in Manchester, Kylie in Melbourne!

Happy Birthday Edam

edam · 05/02/2010 14:43

thank you Knotty, Raven and Thelady - not that I was angling for any comments or anything... (Oh, alright then, I was. But only because I'm a bit disappointed my birthday lunch is off because my friend's kids are ill and my washing machine repairman has let me down.)

edam · 05/02/2010 14:44

Knotty, love the chipmunks btw, especially the 'dear hmmmmmmm'.

KnottyLocks · 05/02/2010 14:48

You are very welcome.

shockers · 05/02/2010 16:07

Actually dragged I think Thora's might be nearer the mark where I'm concerned (while she was alive obviously)

I forgot, I also share mine with my ex husband's daughter... she is younger though

TheApprentice · 05/02/2010 16:12

Think this is hard to beat. I share my birthday with......

Norman Tebbitt.

Also my parents have just moved into the same street as him.....

ScottishBoris · 05/02/2010 16:20

Oooh I share mine with Tom Baker and Buzz Aldrin, Gary Barlow, and Will Young (also Joe Swash, but I'm not shouting about that!)

BB King. I can live with that. even though he's MUCH older than me

edam · 05/02/2010 16:28

thanks SB. At least I've missed sharing my birthday with Ronald Reagan, by just a few hours.

Sukie1971 · 05/02/2010 16:36

GettinTrimmer me too! Much younger tho ....

HellBent · 05/02/2010 17:03

Same day as Patrick Swayze, Edward Norton, Christian Slater, James Corden, Mika, I knew the first one but not the others!

(Also Kris Boyd but he was a year below me at school and is an absolute arse, I'm not including him.)

Also same day as my little cousin and a random girl from school!

jennymac · 05/02/2010 17:12

I share mine with Angelina Jolie and my dh has a not so secret crush on her! (Although he does concede that I look younger than her - hee hee!)
