Friday the 13th, two months in a row

Here's some trivia for you. Okay when it's not a leap year, the dates in March fall on the same days that those dates in February fall on. For example if February the 2nd is on a Tuesday, then March 2nd will be on a Tuesday. Well this year we have a Friday the 13th in February, that means there will be a Friday the 13th in March also. I was wondering how long has it been since that has happened. We don't get Friday the 13ths too often then to have two months in a row with them is even less often.

    2 in 2 months :noway:
    There's another in November, but on the bright side, there's only 1 in the whole of 2010 :bigsmile:

    It can only happen when 2/13 is a Friday AND the year is not a leap year. The last year in which that happened was in 1998.
