Apologies Ron, but from riding with you I would never have thought you were in a rush :P :kuda:

Ya gotta admin though, it's pretty a cool way to get perspective on relative sizes of things!

Sorry Tim but to get a perspective of size I usually use the optical method. If it looks big then it is. :lol:

What I find most amusing about this thread, is that Tim started one exactly the same here:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=35950&p=539487&hilit=universe#p539414

Short term memory loss? :)

Hahaha caught out Aardy :) I knew I'd seen it before, but not that I'd posted it here.

Haha. I didn't realise it was a new thread. I didn't look at the date and just assumed someone had dug up the old thread. :oops: :lol:
