I shall read your blog later Moulee….I think it would be really interesting to find those stories of what people were really doing when we tend to think everyone was involved in major events.

I am sorry you missed it Moulee but there is something quite reassuring about you sleeping through it.

We can think that when we read about something happening in another country that everyone is involved.

The papers never tell us about the people who just fell asleep.

During the eclipse I had a good sleep, since it was dark I thought it was still midnight, and damn when I woke up it was 9.30 am already and I was late to office 🙁

Yes, Claudio, I guess I do like our weather really, I am English for God's sake! I am just a little on the intolerant side when it comes to those conversations.

I am like you Bridge over eclipses....the last one we had was truly weird. I was on the seafront at Brighton and even though we didn't get total darkness, it was creepy enough when all the seagulls almost fell out of the sky and huddled together silently on the shingle.

It was one of those someone's walked on my grave moments.

I'm a bit spooked by eclipses… I found the one a few years ago here very eerie and oppressive.
I dont like being wet and cold. 🙁 I want to be warmm godammit!

To be honest. I think the British response to an eclipse would be (a) to blame the Government (b) to complain about how inconvenient it is (c) not to be impressed "I've seen better. Well, not seen it, obviously, but you know what I mean." and (d) to try and take photos of it with a flash (the moon's a quarter of a million miles away, for crying out loud, just how powerful is your flash?)

I love weather - I'm so glad that we get so much of it.
