Lewis Hamilton mulls riding Virgin

Into space?! With who?!

Who in their right minds would go up into space on the same ship as Signourney Weaver?! Surely thats just asking for all sorts of really nasty trouble? Ripped apart, burned, blown up, left behind, melted, squashed, impregnated, frozen, asphyxiated, scared shitless, beaten up, shot etc etc etc.

They should get the Virgin spokesperson quoted to sit next to her, see how funny she thinks it is once she's encased in alien gunk and then had a foot long tongue shoved down her throat...

Mines the one with the acid proof lining that I just cant get to like any self respecting soon to be slaughtered nameless extra.

Taurid meteors promise Guy Fawkes fireball show

Look and see

Light pollution is definitely a problem when looking for a meteor shower, but it is fairly easily dealt with. Get in the car and get out of town! I've been able to watch meteor showers in a field just off the M11 and only 5 miles from Stanstead airport. Admittedly, not in my London backyard, but hardly in a pristine, dark skies environment.

Clouds, on the other hand, they're definitely a problem! Especially in Britain in November.

But I reckon there's a good reason these things are talked up, thats because they're fantastic things to see (when you can see them). Pisses all over the next door neighbours 3 minute box set which scares the hell out of your cat.
