I always thought SR years were 61 years ahead of our year.

Here is a link to a page where you can type in the
year you want and it will create a full calendar for
it.
http://www.timeanddate.com/calendar/

Here is a link to a page that has the "perpetual"
Calendar.
http://www.mnsinc.com/utopia/Calendar/Year_Correlations.html

It turns out that 2056 has the same dates as 2000!
2057 01, 2058 02, 2059 03, 2060 04, 2061 05,
2062 06, 2063 07.

And you were a sysadmin type person? ;) Go to a unix prompt, type "cal"
followed by the year, and there you've got your calendar. If you want it
dumped into a file, add a greater-than sign followed by a filename. For
example, to get the calendar of 2061, you'd type "cal 2061 > 2061.txt"

Great, thanks. Now all I need to do is make a note of this somewhere I
will remember it :)

We've also got all of the years detailed from 2050 to 2065 at the BKK.
(Oh, & we've got the Perpetual, World, & International Fixed calendars, too):

http://BigKnobiKlub.virtualAve.net/cal.htm <-- Current Calendar Year 2061
http://BigKnobiKlub.virtualAve.net/cal13.htm <-- Perpetual, World, Int'l Cals
http://BigKnobiKlub.virtualAve.net/cal50.htm <-- Calendar Year 2050
http://BigKnobiKlub.virtualAve.net/cal51.htm <-- etc.
http://BigKnobiKlub.virtualAve.net/cal52.htm
etc. etc.

And now you can print them (scroll WAY down, the "Years" are at the bottom):
