Um, yes well, hello! I am amazed that I haven't come across you guys before (pipe down at the back!), having been around that other h2g2 place for what seems like for ever.

Anyway, here you are. Here I am. Our work computer was recently upgraded and now excludes all sorts of blogs/ social and interactive media/ personal networking malarky.

But you lot seem to have a pretty effective SEP cloak around you, so I look forward to whiling away many happy minutes in your..erm..illustrious company.

Thank you Dragon Queen, I had a solar eclipse quite like that earlier this year! :wink:

Now, I can just about fit that blue whale in the swimming pool, if I squueze it a bit, and I reckon if I chop the moon up I can load it onto the lego truucks and use them as roller skates to take me to the dali to buy some morsels suitable to accompany a salutation.

Excellent!

That's some joined-up thinking there. I like it.
