Here's a memory jogger to get them reminiscing about the happy side of the year:

In 1961 Jaguar unveiled every trust-fund baby's dream – an art object that doubled as a motor car. Today The New York Times commemorates the fiftieth anniversary of the E-Type's arrival.

Another good thing from 1961? The Beatles' first concert!
