        Go into the garden at 10.24 Woo and look towards the place where the sun sets right now. Look up and watch for a steady yellow glowing light ( no strobe lights) moving slowly and steadily over you and veering slightly towards the East. It will fade away once the sun's rays are no longer shining on it. Give the lads a wave from GC and wish them well,
        Jenny

          I went outside and waited. They flew over - as promised and I waved to them and all the brave souls who gave their lives for me,

            Not the best pictures......taken at 10.27 and 10.28pm on my Bridge camera. Not fully zoomed in as I can't keep the camera steady without a tripod. :doh:

                    Unfortunately, Sheal, I can't see as clear as a Bell due to the Bell's Palsy which is clearing up but my eye's get tired very quickly and smart after a while.:hate-shocked::snork:

                      I hadn't thought about that Armandii, sorry! I'm glad to hear it's improving though. :)

                          Tonight and until Tuesday it's being followed by its supply ship. They're doing a rehearsal docking today and will only be 5 miles apart at some point and really docking on Tuesday. Both are clearly visible. Just time to catch the pass at midnight but it will only be visible for 3 minutes.
