'Never feel that way'

The flames of yesterday burn long and hard.

Recently I was in Cambridge (as can be seen from the pictures). It is a lovely old town. When I was there it felt as if I was no longer in England. No Tesco at every corner. No huge super-stores. No empty lots growing weed. No run down houses.

It was all so sophisticated and posh. I almost felt out of place. And as a joke when I said to my supervisor that 'I feel inferior here' he turned around to me and told me 'Never feel that way'.
That single sentence was enough to set fire to my brain and inspire me more than anything else!

Sometimes some very simple things can inspire us to achieve great things.

rere25: the younger ones are sometimes scatter brained

XY: i dont think women EVER know what they want in life... till they get a kid
XY: then they r more focussed than a kamikazee

Lord of the Ring!


Yesterday I saw the M57 'Ring' Nebula from my telescope. The first real deep sky object I have managed to see with it. I have a 130mm Newtonian reflector telescope.
