I do wonder whether a penguin would taste more like chicken or fish. They are a type of chicken but eat a lot of fish so I think the latter.0

Think my mistrust in women stems from the time I spent an hour trying to get a girl's number down Scarborough sea front when I was 16. Number she gave me was a taxi office. Should have just told me to 'f**k off' at minute one. Could've concentrated on Pac-man instead.0

I'm what you would call a teleological, existential atheist. I believe that there's an intelligence to the universe, with the exception of certain parts of South Norwood.0

Viewfinder, providing there's not too much cloud cover look directly overhead (assuming you're in London) at 21.27 tonight and you'll see it quite clearly going from West to East.Viewfinder said:

Thanks, M-a-M! I'm going to set the alarm, to remind me. But I fear it's going to remain cloudy here in south-east London. Will report back....man_at_milletts said:

Thanks for the link, M-a-M - I got it! Alarm is set ready for 2127, but I'm pretty sure it's way too cloudy here in south-east London....0

Hey - I just watched it! Quite a thrill. The clouds dispersed and it was bang on time, and exactly where you said it would be: crossing from the west virtually directly overhead. Took a few minutes to reach the eastern horizon. Amazing that it's clearly visible to the naked eye, yet is 200 miles away. Thanks, M-a-M and MOG, for the tips.Miserableoldgit said:Viewfinder said:

Nice break in the clouds (thank you God), went right overhead was visible through the light cloud, and then disappeared.

Cool, it's even better when the sky is cloudless. Another chance at 23.04 tonight, with a bit less cloud.Viewfinder said:

Also amazing was that at 260 miles away and not much bigger than a Boeing 747, the ISS was clearly visible to the naked eye, illuminated by the sun.man_at_milletts said:

Was it really 260 miles up when we saw it yesterday? I couldn't find more details on the link. Seems a very long way to be able to see something about the size of a football pitch!man_at_milletts said:Another two good sightings due tonight. The link I sent will give you the times,

Yes, 430kms whatever that is in old money.
