THIS DAY IN WW2 (19.1.1941)
In East Africa... The British forces in the Sudan begin their offensive against the Italians in Eritrea. The British force is led by General Platt and includes 4th and 5th Indian Divisions and units of the Sudan Defense Force. The Italian troops in the various border positions amount to 17,000 men and are led by General Frusci. There is the equivalent of four more divisions in the interior of the country. Kassala is taken immediately.
In Germany... Hitler and Mussolini meet at the Berghof (January 19-20). Mussolini is unwilling to accept German help in Albania but is prepared to accept some aid in Africa. Hiter says that he will attack Greece if it seems that Britain is going to come in.
In the Mediterranean... In further aerial attacks, slight damage is done to HMS Illustrious.
TODAY IN MY LIFE
A morning of stuff to do online, get some laundry and tidying done before returning to the "supplementary job"
Twitter Followers = 1020 (up 1)
TODAY'S SELF-OBSERVATION
In a kinda "just do it" mood. Grounded, centered, focused at the moment.
TODAY'S THOUGHT
The strongest are more aware of their power to affect others than they are about being affected.
TODAY'S QUESTION FOR YOU
Are you moving in the right direction?
TODAY'S ONELINER
You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted, then used against you. : D
WHAT I ATE YESTERDAY
1 bowl of porridge, 1 can chunky chicken in white sauce, 4 cadburys chocolate fingers, 3 tangerines. Verdict = sensible eating
TRIVIA
Two London-based professional football clubs are named after buidings that no longer exist - Arsenal and Crystal Palace.
TODAY'S AFFIRMATION
Right here, right now, moving forward!
