Perhaps not the biggest news story of the day but wanted to blog the fact that the first spacewalk by a Brit has taken place. Of course, I now expect him to have tea and cucumber sandwiches on the moon.
Speaking of 'Lost In Space' reminds me of the Matt Le Blanc line in the 1999 movie where, on the flight deck of some trillion dollar spaceship, surrounded by hi-teckery and gizmos, he presses the LAUNCH key at the end of the countdown and says "...And the monkey flips the switch.."[CUE ROAR OF ENGINES]. Tee hee.
