What else to do on probably the hottest day of the year? Watch India's Moon Landing of course!

Even if it's just to stick the finger at Putrid, after his "me first, me first" disastrous attempt crashed the other day! :lol: Here's hoping India has more luck. If so, a classic Tortoise and Hare event!! 8-)

Yes. Apparently the referendum of the Selenites as to whether the moon is to join Russia has had to be postponed which was sad as they have already voted 100% to join.

@Spectrum I

In the UK charity begins with the Tories and their cronies.
