So There's This Comet Thing ...

[joggerjayne]

Comet Ison, apparently.

It's going to be around from September 2013 until January 2014.

And it's 16 times brighter than the Moon.

We need a Comet Monitor.

Who could do that job.

Hmm, a bright object, passing through the night sky.

Rather like the Space Station.

Can anyone think of anyone who is good at letting us know when to look out for things like, ooh say, Space Stations, and comets?

Thinks, thinks ...

Anyone at all come to mind?

[Mamyalynne]

Is it edible ?

Wendilla is very good JJ !
Hope you can bring it to her attention on AB

[sandyRoe]

They generally bring bad news. The Day of the Triffids and War of the Worlds both started with lights in the sky.

[joggerjayne]

Wendilla!

Of course!

Why didn't I think of Wendi?

[doctordb]

So did your messiah sandy. :)

Mamya ...

It would make a decent raffle prize for the M O 50's Club

not cheese, pie

I thought Comet had gone into catering when I saw this!


(in food & drink)

[sandyRoe]

liquidation rather than catering, surely?

[Baldric]

Retailing Lemons?

[Mamyalynne]

Are you sure it is a comet ?


♫When the moon hits your eye
Like a big-a pizza pie♫

[Octavius]

I'm still wating to find out what this comet is on

[joggerjayne]

I'm not sure how I pressed Food and Drink.

:0(

[Old_Geezer]

That sounds nice. Last comet I saw closed down. Their store sign is still up though.
