There was certainly plenty going on in 1966 - the year that England won the football World Cup (not that they talk about it much).
The first ATM was installed in a bank in the USA, Walt Disney died and hazardous warnings started appearing on cigarette packets.
In Britain, The Beatles released ‘Revolver’, the Labour Party led by Harold Wilson won a snap general election by a landslide, and singer Rick Astley was born.
Meanwhile in Scotland, the Tay Road Bridge opened, Heriot-Watt College became Heriot-Watt University, and Chris Bonington led a group of mountaineers who climbed the Old Man of Hoy for the first time.
