Reminds me of a SPSP I attended quite some years ago. Around 2.00 a.m. I was doing the rounds peering through various telescopes as you do and one chap was getting a bit excited about something he had found. I heard him say "come and have a look at this love" and heard nearby a little muffled voice reply " doo I... have... too". I strained my eyes to see one of those big old arm chairs covered in blankets and worked out his dutiful wife was buried somewhere in the folds. She did in fact crawl out eventually to join him in his excitement. I thought that was so sweet and wished my wife was with me at that moment but she had something else on at the time.
