Sir Richard of Bromley sounds wonderful. I'll have to tell the Queen to make it happen. Now where did I put her phone number?

Wonderful photos Richard!

I would loved to have seen it all, but nice getting a peek through your photos. :)

Thanks Leelai. I do enjoy those occasions. At least I now have time to get to them.

I still remember seeing her when I was in primary school? She came for a tour...loved it!

Must be quite a thrill to be there though!

Near the Ionian Nebula, still searching for Earth
It surprised me to learn tonight that even though 70% of the Earth's surface is covered by water, the oceans are shallow when compared to the planetary radius.
This picture which is posted on the NASA HD site (see iPad app) shows just how little water there is on Earth and what it would look like if all of the water was sopped up into a ball.

Oh my god. Awful news!

Donna Summer has died. She had cancer.

I feel love! Bad Girls! Love to love you, baby! Hot stuff! Another Disco Diva to leave us!

US singer Donna Summer, famous for disco hits including I Feel Love and Love To Love You Baby, has died at the age of 63.

Summer was one of disco's biggest stars and won five Grammy Awards.

Born LaDonna Andre Gaines, Summer grew up in Boston and started singing in her church's gospel choir.

She began her professional career on the stage and joined the cast of a German production of the musical Hair in the late 1960s, prompting her to move to the country.

Her first solo record came out in 1971 but it was her work with the Italian synthesiser pioneer Moroder that led to her breakthrough with Love to Love You Baby in 1975 - the first of 29 UK top 40 singles.

Her expressive vocal style, coupled with Moroder's pulsating rhythms, made the song a big club and chart hit - as well as getting it banned by several radio stations.

That was most unexpected news, Hayles and Mollysmum. It's sad, she was young.

They were playing quite a bit of her music on the news and entertainment shows. She really had such a beautiful voice.
