    Wow pookey, that looks like a fantastic purchase! Are you an experienced astronomer or is this your first scope? That's an extremely reasonable price for what looks like a great piece of kit :)

    Kenco - you do realize Mir was deorbited about 10 years ago, don't you?

    Well, every day is an education! I honestly thought it was still up there! Doh.
    So we'll see pics of people waving from the windows of the ISS? (once the weather's cleared).
    Btw, here's a handy guide so you can tell what you're looking for up there.

    Well the restaurants motto is:

    "It aint fancy, it's just Goode"

    Place is called "Goode's Q and Bayou Grill" and they have THE BEST food in Great Falls. The gumbo looks odd but I can assure you that it is fantastic!

    Just the word gumbo, well, doesn't sound very appealing. It needs to say ' a velvety cream soup containing rice, herbs, turds (maybe not that one ;) ) and chicken fillets. Soul food. :D

    It's akin to 'Tent Peg Stew'. I actually had one that had a tent peg in it, true story. I was really quite violently ill through the night so not an episode I'll ever repeat.

    If you want a Gumbo but the name simply puts you off, try a Jumbalaya. It's more rice than soup though.

    I honestly thought you had taken a picture of a lunch you had forgotten in the trunk of your car 3 months ago or something.

    You sir, are a brave man for eating this.

    Jumbalayas are scrummy! Rice, prawns and peppers with other random bits of veg, really rather nice for something regarded as fairly healthy.

    They're awesome! I think britishmilitarysurplus.co.uk had them in stock a while ago for £5 which was an absolute bargain but they were gobbled up.
