2017 to 2018... it may not immediately spark the most milestone of NYE celebrations.
However, it seems we've all missed something pretty standout about December 31, 2017.
Get ready.
Yes, when the clock strikes midnight - the 21st century will become that little bit more significant.

As observed by one Twitter user's Dad, "on New Year’s Eve, every single adult in the world will have been born in the 20th century and every child will have been born in the 21st century".
They added: "That’s the only day that’s true for, and my mind is suitably BLOWN".
Us too.
Needless to say, the response to the observation has been explosive: the tweet itself has so far notched up 23K retweets and 47K likes since been shared on December 23.
So all we can say is... Happy New Year!
