Santas last training run

[TVC]

At 17.59 on Christmas Eve the international space station will be visible travelling from west to east over the UK. The transit will take about three minutes and will be one of the brightest that occur.

This of course is quite spectacular, but if you have a child of the right age it looks just like Santa putting in a final training run before the big night. Lets hope for clear skies.

Yes, but we all know he doesn't set out until midnight.

I think that TVC and Lu do things slightly different. For example, I bet they put their knives and forks the wrong way round on the table

Some people are easily shocked by that sort of thing

.......and when it comes to where Potsy lives, he doesn't get out of bed until 5th January

@potsy actually gets out of bed ?

No can't be true

 

[Hill Wimp]

Oh you are @potsy friend, makes sense now

My son and myself watched it pass over last night, it was very bright. Looking through the camera on full zoom you could make out its shape.

Just to qualify, you are best to go outside before you look up

 

[TVC]

Bump. This is your 10 minute reminder.

I saw it but was distracted by the sound of a bunny rabbit being transformed into a fox's Christmas Eve snack.
