Got ages until 'The Best Of The ______ies' with talking heads from a craggy Simon Cowell et al Ollster! Worry about it then!

i had the same brain numbing thought last week - and I asked someone and they said it was the "teenies" which clearly its not cos 11 isnt in the teens, nor is 12 so its another 2 years till we get that official label...

What did they call 1911?

Iv asked people and Iv heard "Tweenies"and the "2000's"

 

[West London Shadow]

What did they call 1911?

nineteen tens... so twenty tens makes sense.

Not exactly. It goes 1-10, not 0-9 (as there was no year 0)

That's why the "Millennium" was actually being celebrated a year early when everyone made such a fuss in 2000. 2001 was technically more correct.
