Hmm .. 3am-5am
Think I might just be in bed, thanks. Can someone take a photo, thanks.
As Man Utd & Arsenal are playing that night, which one will lay claim to the red moon?
Judging by the weekend .... <ahem> ....
Total lunar eclipse: look skywards Wednesday

@Jon : The moon bleeds !
1 / All faithfull supplicant are of course volunteer for the sacrifice. Please join the line !
2 / Failure to volunteer is punishable by sacrifice, see 1/ for volunteering
"Most Priests and churches didn't practice human sacrifice anymore. It is mostly because with time they became so damn good at it that they didn't need to practice anymore"
(Terry Pratchett, I think. His version is much better than my foggy rememberance)
(Dear Mr FBI, no, we won't meet at the old druidic stone in Aberdeslashininokangre (Welsh country), as this is a JOKE. Members of the church please bring your own sickle and sacrifice, wear and tear on virgins having depleted our stocks)

@Adrian Challinor
Sorry, you gonna be disappointed as I smoke (expensive, luxury, british, ex-Queen-Purveyor, large Red packs, Dun**ll) basic tobacco.
The medley from the previous post comes from too many (drunken) AD&D nights in my youth, and the complete collection of Terry Pratchett books I accumulated.
The sentence on "wear and tear on virgins" also comes from Pratchett, in the book "Guards ! Guards !" I think.
As they say, plagiarism is the highest form of litterary flattery (and the highest source of copyrights income) 8p

Beauty and Light
Have you ever stood in the night chill and looked up at the blanket of stars? The blazing brightness of the heavens so captures you that words can hardly express the ache in your heart.
Sometimes it is difficult to see, because of the distraction of our busy street lights and flashing neons, urging us to look at them instead.
We block out so much about our lives and most of all we block out God. Our lives are so full of distractions, competing for our attention, but God is still there. He brings us to a place through his clear direction and helps us to practice his presence in the midst of all our worldly distractions. I often look to the sky and remember the words of my beloved Dad... as he would have finished his prayer with..."Let us shine with your light here in this darkness of unbelief".
Enjoy the beauty of the earth and that above it, where we marvel at the sight of our blood red moon and let us light every day with the truth.
