Couldn't find my welding mask so used the inside of a 1.3m floppy disc to view

No darkness for us Somerset folk. Just went a bit dim for a bit.

Well Somerset and dim are synonymous

What an anti climax that was. Clear brilliant skies and it just went a tinge darker.

You could have fapped to it for a better climax.

Yeah it depends on location, wasn't much different to a normal day for me either.

Fairly clear here in central Scotland, was pretty dark at one point

Was a nice little break from working* too

I live in the best county in the country and it was it was very poor here

See this is what happens under a Tory led government, cloudy and not a total eclipse. Now if we vote UKIP into power in May we'll get clear skies and total eclipses as often as we want.

Bloody immigrant clouds, coming over here and taking our eclipses! :mad:

It actually was yesterday.

France sent over a cloud of smog.

Best I could manage up here in the NW, results of dangling out of bathroom window with a sammy compact camera and some bloc shades as a filter.

Totality coming up in 3 minutes.

Was lucky enough to have a break in the clouds here, all the neighbours was round in full force looking though my many pairs of home made glasses with solar filters, the view through my telescope was fantastic, got lots of photos too

I looked at it through a pint of Guiness. Seemed to do the job.
