No star gazing here

So much for Geminidis. I spent approximately one minute looking up at the sky but it was too cold so I gave up and went to bed. What did I expect, I haven't even got a telescope? The gap between whimsy and reality remains as vast as ever. The only time I've ever seen falling stars was at Glastonbury in 1978. Lying flat on my back outside the tent with my boy friend; staring up into the sky, listening to the music floating up from the Pyramid stage (it was quite a small festival back then) and watching stars slide across the galaxy floor above my head. A little slice of heaven.
