No Okay I know that isn't today's date, just humour me here, July 31 is a really great day and here's why.....
It's, Fatboy Slim, Wesley Snipes, Harry Potter, Daniel Ash (Bauhaus) Birthdays,
Christopher columbus landed on Trinidad (1498)
Land mines were banned totally (1998)
Ignatius of Loyola (Jesuit founder) died in Rome (1556)
Pope Sixtus lll was elected (432)
The Spanish Armada was spotted of the coast of England (1588)
Dr Crippen was arrested for murdering his wife (1910)

Also, its a holiday in Malaysia... Warrior's day
