Yup. Big day for, um, wiccans.

It is a perilous occupation for TGC to post anything by way of a promise, as the words get etched in indestructable marble for all time.

Ah, round Morecambe way?

It's such a cool web site, especially the pics of the earth from Satellites. I am wondering though where the clouds are

(it's probably some sort of temperature map, coloured)

Could you wait 10 hours? I'm going to bed

Now I think of it, if I go to bed I would have to shut my new 10050' lcd off, but this means whole europe would be black on the picture
