Just read on t'internet that on Wednesday there will be a total eclipse of the moon It says it will be visible from just after nightfall for several hours We will be able to view it here in Spain It might be worth checking if it will be seen in UK :?: :?: :?:

    I am somewhat eclipsed myself at the mo so won't even try, but I suspect we wouldn't see it here (Ipswich) due to light pollution from streetlamps. I wish all you sky observers well, I hope it is visible. DD

    It's those Zogians doing it, the plot is to distract us with that little show and BAM next thing you know Mandelson will be Camerons aide, see David Icke was right there all Lizards in human suits, Cameron is the lord of Zogon and he's here to make sure the worlds population risies to 10 billion and then it's harvest time for us!.
    Right tin foil at the ready!, mind you the dog hates having bacofoil rapped round his ears only way round it is super glue and sellotape. And as for the hamster don't even go there!.

    I find stainless steel funnels the best option for hamsters,guinea pigs n the like. Lol

    Ogres are a different kettle of fish though, a colander may do the job, if not, then it's time to let them go.. It's for the best :shock:

    could see naff all here again.. Lol
    Supposed to be a few different things happening in our skies coming up though I believe....
    A meteor shower at some point. And I believe that some of the planets are meant to be quite visible tonight :?:

    I'm way too lazy to get up and look now though.. Haha

    Hi Tony,
    You're right there is lots going on in the sky at the moment, I've been looking at Saturn and it's fab :grin: I know im sad :smile: but I love my telescope, I saved for 2 yrs to get it and I can honestly say, when I'm out there all wrapped up and looking at the stars I feel quite peaceful and it really takes my mind off the pain :grin:
    Hope you're feeling ok? Xxx

    Hi Popster, very tired mi dear, got to try go to sleep, but I know how relaxing it is just gazing at the stars. I can't wait to be back up in Keilder Forest later this year.. Clearest skies I've ever seen. Plus the new car we have has a full glass roof so we don't even have to sit out in the cold, excellent..........



    Right....


    Gonna go, so goodnight mi dear, sleep well.
