Usually find out about these the day after!

 

Good reminder, also mentioned on Calendar weather last night.

 

So how far south would one have to travel to see a TOTAL?

Someone mentioned this on a caravan forum that I use and a young lady said quite seriously "Oh what a pity we will be away that day and will just miss it". :hihi::hihi::hihi:

I've been lucky enough to see partial solar eclipses virtually every day since last autumn from the vantage point of my kitchen window, here at 'Area 51 and a half'.

 

Come the end of March, when the leaves pop out on the tree again, it should be even more impressive ... 'total eclipse of the Sun by the sycamore tree'!

 

Also (as an aside, if you fancy), it's possible to see a total eclipse of the Sun every night, sycamore or not ... this time caused by the Earth getting in the way.

A good way to spot this for you keen eyed amateur astromologists, is to look outside and see if it's gone dark (open the curtains first for maximum efficacy). :thumbsup:

A wearisome and, at times, perilous mission I may slowly hasten to add with alacrity. More later when my toothache subsides to allow rational thought once again, courtesy of some paramedical tablets (or a mallet). :sad:
