    To you lucky people not affected by cloud, rain, work etc, there is an opportunity this coming Monday 1st December 2008 to witness Venus disappearing behind the Moon at 15:48 GMT (3:48pm) and reappearing in the dark at 17:17 GMT (5:17pm) in the South.
    Slightly earlier in the North disappearing at 15:42 and reappears at 17:10.

    Incidentally, Jupiter will only be a couple of degrees to the north at the time.
    I am praying to the Rain Gods sunnyso that there are no clouds etc over the UK for this event.
    How many minutes are we behind the UK for this sort of stuff ?
