Eclipse

I don't know what it says about my sanity levels but just under an hour ago I was soaking in a hot bath when himself pointed out that the eclipse was tonight.  I have just spent the last 20 minutes standing outside on the patio in my bathrobe and slippers watching same.  It's gorgeous but my god are my feet cold.  Worth it to start firing Jodies interest in astronomy though.  Hal, on the other hand, just wants to pretend he's a weresomething.  It sounds like a werewolf with laryngitus.

Funny that we had too much cloud to see it properly. And we are not that far apart!

I think the cloud we got later came from your direction. Shame that though because it was a very nice eclipse.

So I gather I wouldn't mind but we had perfect views of the moon earlier!

Oh well I saw yhe last full eclipse of the moon. It was huge and spookily red. I almost expected to see the wild hunt riding!
