I got up for a wee last night at about 0300 Zulu and happened to glance out the window. It was a clear night with the full moon and it was bright beyond belief. I could genuinely have stood outside and read a newspaper, althought id have been arrested for being naked if I had done so.

I don’t believe for one minute that you’ve actually taken your Y-fronts off this early in the year.

It's not against the law in the UK to be naked in a public place, but seeing it's you..........

Next one in the UK is 19th November, albeit partial. You've got to wait a year for the next Total Lunar Eclipse, 16th May 2022 and then it is not well placed...

There are going to be some Lunar Eclipses over the next few years but realistically, the next really good "blood moon" to happen in the UK will be 20-21 December 2029...

Plenty of time to prepare!

There’s a partial solar eclipse to look forward to in the UK on June 10th also.
