Default What they heck were those up in the sky?
What the heck were those two bright objects up in the sky last night? Planets I guess. I went over to my friend Fred's place and after looking at them together for a few minutes he said.."That's a bummer Richie I thought my family might be coming back to get me".

I read about that in the newspaper. I'm going to watch that. I read that it is quite rare that Venus and Jupiter are so close to each other.

No. No swamps round here. No alligators either. There's Hackney Marshes I suppose, but that's right the other side of London. Why do you ask?

Why am I reading this thread. Who is Raaaid. What is 'Cliffs of Dover'?

While I'm here, and changing the subject, did anyone notice those bright lights in the sky? Does anyone know what they are...?
