Well ...

Hi All,

Full details will follow in due time and probably from others.

The days started with very low dark cloud, showers and thunderstorms and ended in a similar fashion.

Virtually all of the time between was the same.

There was one 15-odd minute break when the Sun appearred and guess what ????


The 15 mins was exactly superimposed over the centre of totallity .

Utterly incredible. Saw all 5.56 mins through thin high cirrus/haze -- glorious.

20 mins before -- raining.

20 mins after -- raining.

Cannot believe our good luck -- you had to be there to appreciate it. 15mins we saw the Sun all day -- centred exactly over totallity. Wow

Emoticons fail me! (Sorry Jen)

Very tired. Excuse my bad typing (been up since 3am)


Best to all and thanks for hoping for us,


Les D
