I was Just Looking Up

[leon]

Hi Guys, well I think the men folk of this forum will understand this better than the fair sex, but I'm sure all will know what I'm talking about.

Sometimes in desperation we all have to go, especially when modern conveniences are no at hand.

My Alice has always said it is so easy for you guys, all you have do do is find a tree and pretend you are looking at the stars.

Well tonight that was the case, I was outside near my observatory and nature was calling urgently, the tree was close, I was looking up and the stars were bright.

Then a sight to behold, the biggest fire ball I have ever seen, and this is only my second, wow, I nearly forgot what I was doing it nearly crossed the entire N/E of the skyline, and was just smoking

Maybe I should make a habit of this

lucky nothing electrical was out there - the MP3 must have been streaming that's of course if you were listening to an ipod...... nice to occasionally see something unexpected sometimes......lucky the neighbours don't have a infra red camera.....

Right place at the right time eh Leon. At least you had you mind on the higher things rather than the job in hand.

I don't understand?

[leon]

I think we better quit while were ahead, before this turns into something that was not intended.

Hey Leon you have to laugh even in the face of adversity when you think about it life is full of strange events and things you never think will happen at the most inappropriate times but thats what makes it all worth it

Cheers and we're glad to share you excitement and even empathise with you embarrassing timing ()
