We were hoping you were, AA!

Unfortunately my location is too far north and east which will put the sun and moon below the horizon.

I'd like to view it, but tomorrow is a late one for me. I need to power up before than.

Where I am,the Sun is in partial eclipse,with the Moon taking a bite out of the Sun's disc.

Did you see it sink below the horizon?

The sun hasn't set yet,it's still about 5° above the north-west horizon.

That's going to look pretty sharp in partial.

Unfortunately I don't have the equipment to take a photo of it.

Robin Gibb has died. This is sad news; he was in remission, and it looked like he would be OK.

By coincidence, the first challenge in the Where in the World thread referred to him.

Such a shame that so many pop artists that we grew up with have passed on.

But the music they made and why it was special to us then and now - is never lost.

Where in the World is running, with interesting challenges. Give it a go.

When I talk about the Mods and about rocking the boat,I cannot help but think of the Mods and Rockets
