My Mum died on the 10th of April, 2003. Jean Coviello (nee Folley). Very strange day. It had been very warm that week but when the police came to take Mum there was a bad hail storm. It had been hot and sunny, but as they took Mum out of the bedroom, a hail storm struck out of nowhere. When they left sun came back.

Take me back to April 10, 2003

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Thursday, April 10, 2003. Anyone born today will have the star sign Aries. The summer of 2003 is drawing closer, and temperatures have started to rise.

In America, the song "In Da Club" by 50 Cent is at the top of the singles charts, while "Make Luv" by Room 5 is the number-one song in the UK. George W. Bush Jnr. is the President of the United States, and the movie Phone Booth is at the top of the box office. Tony Blair is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

In technology news, more and more people are beginning to gain access to the Internet. Internet speeds are increasing and MP3 sharing is beginning to threaten the existence of music stores. People are using a software program called LimeWire to share music, software, and videos. Unfortunately, it is also a haven for computer viruses. Smartphones don't exist yet. There are no Androids or iPhones.

Cameras on phones are quickly becoming the norm. However, the photographs that they take are still lacking in quality. It's 2003, so the music charts are being dominated by the likes of 50 Cent, R. Kelly, Sean Paul, 3 Doors Down, Nelly, Evanescence, Chingy and Beyonce. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as Camoflauge, Barry White, Bob Hope, and Charles Bronson would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "Buffy the Vampire Slayer", "Alias", "Smallville", and "Without a Trace". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Medal of Honor: Frontline", "Unreal Tournament 2003", "Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2", and "Ratchet & Clank". Children and teenagers are watching television shows such as "Bear in the Big Blue House", "Rocket Power", "The Fairly OddParents", and "Invader Zim".

Popular toys at the moment include HitClips audio player, Beyblades (spinning top toys), Micropets, and Barbie B-Book Laptop.
