Fiona may drop me off if I'm really nice to her and give her a massage :roll:

You'd want to be careful or you'll make Kylie jealous :D

See you in a while lads...

Nice work Mike, thanks for having us over - and the food wasn't bad at all, no stomach cramps yet! :lol:

As for the name for your observatory, you live in Number 39....

...as was suggested, why not call it 39A, like the shuttle launchpad 39A - there's your space connection! :D

...err, perhaps not!

Actually, how about any of the following:

Aki No Sora Observatory (clear blue autumn sky)
Tenmongaku Observatory (Astronomy)
Amanogawa Observatory (Milky Way)

Any other suggestions, preferably involves words with a slight bit more imagination?

BTW, I saw a massive fireball at around 8.11pm coming back from Michaels place, on my way into Limerick, it was west of the moon , so I presume it was one of these taurids, I was driving in city lights, this streak lasting 4 or so seconds, I reckon it was atleast half the brightness of the moon, it was green and the last 2 seconds it was above the light cloud, but still visible, very nice :D
