I was so moved by it I couldn't stop shaking afterwards.John Meddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10547777949324509522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3248139855347807926.post-23777207917583392302019-07-17T09:58:52.088+01:002019-07-17T09:58:52.088+01:00Lots of footage yesterday as the anniversary of la...Lots of footage yesterday as the anniversary of launch day. Thanks to you I discovered the book Moondust which was a great insight to what went on in the minds of the astronauts themselves. What a time to be alive and I remember well watching that rocket take off for the moon - Still probably a bit too young to really take in the significance of it all but glad I could watch in real time. Remember that bit about the 50/50 chances and also the bit about they didn't know if the surface was like blancmange or solid - They could have all disappeared without trace!<br /><br />Love the Joey Ramone sign - The plan was to go to NYC for my 50th - The new plan is for my 60th which is a heck of a lot closer than I want it to be. Will look out for it if I make it this time.<br /><br />Alysonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15671033552961486737noreply@blogger.com
