    Newtons rings I think they are called, something to do with ice crystals in the air maybe?

    Slightly, but not as much as I would like to be!!

    I went out anyway and I forgot what I was supposed to be looking for but while I was out, I decided to put water into the Windscreen-washer as it's empty so I have that jobeen done. Anyway all I could see was full round moon, there was a lovely halo around it. Actually it's a lovely night out nice n dry n crisp. I like that weather. Baltic cold though. I'd say we'll have some fair frosht in the mornin. I really hope peeps with partners appreciate their s.o.'s in this weather! :pac:

    Building a wall around south Korea would be easier.

    I wonder is it anything to do with the Supermoon we're due tomorrow night?

    I'd say the moon ring is a Trump-Farage related phenomon, either that or it proves that the moon is indeed related to Saturn.

    It's a corona or a halo depending on the size of the ice crystals.

    Interesting fact, the visible part of a corona is called an aureole. Which means that there's a huge nipple in the sky.

    I'm not saying it's aliens







    But it's definitely aliens

    ...obviously cooking moon chips in the internal void = smoke escapes and causes a smoke ring!

    Think I'll go out for a gawk at the moon again. Wonder has it changed.

    That's what you get for not putting a bicycle chain on your moon.
