Thank you for the reminder.

OldGit · December 08, 2011, 10:46:27 AM

Will we see it over here?

Saturday afternoon, we'll get a partial eclipse, OG.

This is my bad boy. I'm gonna spot me some aylyuns too.

EDIT: Note reflection of Asmo in the window. I've got 5000W bulb on him to test for the refraction coeffiecient of evil.

Oooh! I'll have to set my alarm so I can see that. Thank's for the heads up Pharaoh Cat!

EEE! This is so cool!

OldGit · December 10, 2011, 10:56:39 AM

Goddammit, the BBC just said that in the UK it will only be visible from the Shetland Islands.

Buddy · December 10, 2011, 10:59:44 AM

Wow, that really sucks OG.

OldGit · December 10, 2011, 11:08:55 AM

Thanks BH, but another bulletin just said it would only be total up north. If the clouds allow, we shall see a partial eclipse down here. However, it's pretty cloudy now, with 3 hours to go.

*Edit* Nevermind, the clouds cleared. I can see it now

Supposed to be where I am at 15:06, methink. Will see if it will be visible. Is partly cloudy.

No, dammit, I didn't. The Pastafarians at Venganza were hoping it would give a chance to see what kind of cheese the moon is made out of. Maybe some of the Murrikins will be able to find out.

Well, I didn't have a telescope so I just saw it with my eyes.
