Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 After all the build up, was a bit disappointed really. Managed to catch it through a break in the clouds, but just wasn't as dark as I was expecting - nothing like the '99 one, whic was a really surreal experience; it went surprisingly twilighty back then, with the animals in the fields around the site I was on starting to get ready for sleep, birds starting to roost etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

corsechris Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 Was a disappointing view near Evesham too, just a few glimpses through gaps in the cloud cover. Had a grand view of the almost total one in '99 though. Everyone at our place gathered on the roof of one of the main buildings. Funny, only the night before, I was reading and there was a line where a character in the book commented how he found the excitement about eclipses pointless - "just a matter of perspective and celestial mechanics". It was nice to see, but I confess I don't get too excited about them. The hype on TV etc this year was remarkable..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
