Celebrity YOU!
Well done & congratulations to you Warren- how exciting that must have been!
Yes, Venus has a lot to answer for doesn't it.
At Easter time I had a wee bit of an astro session in my backyard, and as soon as a couple of my cousins got out of the car and saw me, they rushed me outside to ask me what "that strange thing is sitting low in the sky". What made it look even stranger was that Venus had a fuzzy, coloured halo around it- much like the moon sometimes gets.
You just know don't you, as soon as someone points even vaguely and in that millisecond, towards west, you'll just know it's Venus.
I told them they weren't the only ones taken in by Venus.
