The Solar Eclipse Was A Bit Of An Anti-Climax, And Nobody Was Blinded

It was a total anti-climax and everyone got a bit miffed at the good old British weather.

Remember, folks, we won't see ANYTHING like this again until 2026. #eclipse2015 pic.twitter.com/D0dRTQCf64

#eclipse2015 Too cloudy? Re-create the experience by wearing a Smartie as a monocle whilst staring at a lightbulb.

nearly blinded myself by looking directly at the eclipse. BUT AT LEAST I SAW IT. YAY!
