My friend loved this gift... Something unusual, interesting. Other friends were also got curious to know what's in the folder, what happened on my friend Rajni's birthday
I had a great time reading where my ancestors came from. I always knew my surname was Scottish my Grandfather was a Scotsman & he was from Argyll. Then he moved down to Dumbarton. We were all very interested in what was researched. Can't thank you all enough for putting in all the work.
This was purchased for a family friends upcoming 65th Birthday in April.When it arrived on the 16th February I took it out of its folder to check out the many interesting facts you researched for this important day. I am sure he will find it very informative when he reads it.

I saw 'A Day in History' advertised on Facebook and I thought it would be a unique and unusual 'from me to me' present for my recent 65th birthday. I was chuffed to bits with the quality and the prompt delivery. I will be recommending it to my friends and family. Thank you again, Gordon Taylor.

Bought as a birthday gift, so was delighted with the content 😀
I have now bought the same Day You Were Born Pacs for my 2 son's and my fiancé and thought I'd buy one for myself! I'm blown away again! The card the information is printed on is excellent quality as is the thicker cardboard folder it's kept in for safety! I'm 67 and didn't know any of the information that accompanied the day I was born and I found it fascinating! It is all printed beautifully on cream card and I know I'm going to cherish it for the rest of my life! The people at A Day in History are so helpful and kind, and it seems like they really enjoy what they do! I'm going to purchase more packs for my daughters-in-law and the Wedding Day Packs for their anniversaries! It's a wonderful piece of your own history to keep forever! Thank you for such a wonderful item, it's truly amazing! A very happy recipient of a Day You Were Born Pack!
Very pleased with the content and presentation. A perfect Birthday present!
