D-oH! .... and i am 1900 miles away

[Yorky Lass]

The clouds seem to be breaking up a bit here in South Yorks so fingers crossed. I saw it most of the time last time you were posting.

[wendilla]

have you had any luck there Excel?

[cupid04]

yeah, excel have you found yourself a nice Greek lady?x

[excelsior-1]

we got up for the 6am sighting once, but as it was already light - we could not discern anything ... so we have not tried again

as for the others you gave me - the god-daughter has gone to bed each night exhausted, so it was decided we should not wake her up

but i still thank you for taking the time to provide me with those times

[wendilla]

Excel sighting for Greece tomorrow 9 51 pm and the 9th 9 02pm

[excelsior-1]

i shall note those wendilla, thank you

cupid .. i have not done so .. for fear of breaking your heart

[wendilla]

sighting also on the 7th 9 02 wsw for Greece.

[excelsior-1]

(sorry) wendilla ... is that local time? it is two hours ahead of you here - - also, from which direction?

[Ann]

Excel - I see you were asking about the Space Station.
You should be able to see it over there - here are the times visible in Athens and they will be much the same. Have a great time spotting it!

[excelsior-1]

good lord .. thank you, Ann

[wendilla]

Ann we seem to be getting different times . Excel woops didn't think of that the 2 hours but as it is the greek site I would imagine it would be the time stated.

[Ann]

Wendilla, I get mine from this site, is it correct?

[excelsior-1]

just looked at the tracker site .... looks like it is approaching me from the sw now ... can anybody confirm?

[wendilla]

Ann that is the one I normally use and get it ok for the uk but could not get Greece for some reason . So tried another.

[wendilla]

Just had a look on the tracker you could be right say about 15 mins approx.

[excelsior-1]

better go and look for it then .. thank you, and good night

[wendilla]

good night excel enjoy your holiday
