Comet McNaught anyone?
Not a thing here in Scotland. The few days it was visible in the northern hemisphere we had gales and driving rain. I never saw a thing. When the weather did get a bit better the comet was too close to the sun.
Canada had better luck, Dan Charrois, the original author of Digital Universe sent me a picture he had taken. You could see the comet quite clearly in bright twilight.
Never saw a thing from the UK. Now it's an Antipodean sight...
Why do they get all the luck....!
They always seem to get the best views, and it is not just the obvious reasons of weather or less light pollution. The comet is much brighter now than when it was viewable in the north.
Typical we are visiting South Africa on holiday later this year but by then we will have missed it.
Always at the wrong place at the wrong time :-(
