Name the Decade ?

Post by Selby White »

Each event occurred in the 20th century. Name the decade.

1. The Highway Code is first issued
2. England women's national football team played its first official association football match, against Scotland in Greenock.
3. Barnardo’s charity sent last the group of children from Southampton to Australia.
4. Michael Portillo is born
5. Desert Island Discs is first broadcast
6. Ireland was divided into two self-governing constitutions
7. Ford first produce a car called the Anglia
8. A Pan American Airways flying boat is the world's first heavier-than-air North Atlantic passenger service between the United States and Britain
9. Vauxhall Motors of Luton is purchased by American giant General Motors

Keep your face always toward the sunshine - and shadows will fall behind you.
