120 years ago

In 1887...

Barbed wire was patented.
The first contact lenses were made.
Hertz invented radar.
The first gramophone was made.
A year before, Coca Cola had been invented, so was the dishwasher, and the chemical element fluorine was discovered.

And the first church service was held in my church.

were you leading back then or just overseeing that night....?

On another note - Happy 120th mr Church (or Ms Church... hmmm which would it be?)

If the heritage people haven't already got you then you can look forward to a visit in the next 20-30 years....

P.s sorry Misty... I know you aren't that old (give it another 10 or so years....) but you should know not to leave those kind of openings lying around.
