Sir Patrick Moore

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

And lets not forget his superlative xylophone skills. Another of our favourite eccentrics gone to the great telescope in the sky.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

He was a controversial figure at times, but a great populiser of science.

A sad loss. :notworthy:

I always wanted to swap my Granddad for Patrick Moore instead. He was so much cooler and more interesting ( they did look rather alike aside from the monocle ) I never got to catch The Sky at Night very often, but always enjoyed it when I did :_(
