Yep.. was quite funny...
An authentic reaction from some normal people yeah, it was pretty funny. Happy eclipse day to all.

I may need to delegate the TDF coverage of that one.

They said on Sky News last night that there is a total eclipse somewhere in the world around every 18 months. They spoke to somebody who follows them around and has seen many.
