Year by Year

Have you ever found yourself trying to remember what else was going on in the world during a certain time in your life?
This section of the blog is designed to help with just that.

Each post looks at a specific year — starting just after the Second World War — and highlights:

• Major news events

• Social and cultural milestones

• Technological breakthroughs

• What life looked like at the time

Whether you’re writing your life story, reminiscing about your youth, or simply curious about how the world has changed, I hope this timeline sparks memories and reflection.

      ⇒ Use the decade menu above to explore by time period.

⇒ Or just scroll through and dip in wherever interests you.

And of course, feel free to share your own memories in the comments!
