One day I would like a telescope and a small, cosy observatory on the very top of our top field. Tonight would be a good night. It`s sizzling with stars and Orion is hanging over the horizon at a rather comical angle. Many moons ago,to keep up the astronomical theme,when flying was still the preserve of the few and a bit of an adventure, I took off for Africa and an adventure of my own. We flew overnight and every time I looked out of the window there was Orion. He`s kept me company ever since on this and other continents and fanciful as it may seem I am always reassured by the sight of him. Even if he does look a bit drunk tonight.
