Born Hunter 17,638 Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 It's lovely when the sun makes an appearance on these chillier days. It was beautiful at about 7am this morning. Venus and the moon wee so bright there was hardly anything else visible and with the ground white with hard frost it was almost like daylight. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Things only folk like us seem to appreciate, millions of others will go through scenes like that on a daily basis and never see it 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisJones 7,973 Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 We dipped down to -20°C overnight although it was around -8°C for the most of it. 6" of snow on the ground looked nice with a fullish moon but I'll be f*ck*d if I was walking around in it!

I've just read that Jupiter is the 'star' next to Venus in the morning at the moment too. It's pretty cool. I suspected it was either Jupiter or Saturn as pretty much all actual stars are outshone that time of morning with only planets and the moon visible. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

stumfelter 3,032 Posted January 23, 2019 Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 I've got a bearded dragon but there's no way I'd trust him with my terrier. In the summer when I put the lizard in his run the fcuker sits watching him like a hawk! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Greyman 25,259 Posted January 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2019 When the dragon goes missing in my house I can ask the Russell were it is and she will go and find it straight away, I often pick up Young or injured animals on my travels and the dogs no that anything in the house is a no no, have had squirrels hedgehogs and a few bird species here over the years and though the dogs want a pop they soon take them in there stride were as they would kill them in an instant outdoors ✌✌✌ 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thought you would have one of those apps, my eldest is a science teacher and she is the one with the app on her phone, we often sit in the garden and look at the planets and stars through her iPhone and it names whatever you point it at, think it's a freebie as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I,d go out walking all night if we had that here, it's great on the few occasions it happens as everything stands out against the white background but acts as if you can't see it, probably get a bit boring if it was everyday but when it's once every few years I try to make the most of it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
