Rosetta Mission

First thing this morning Wilson popped into the village to buy himself a kazoo from the toy shop, so he can accompany himself while playing the spoons during the birth of Ms Rowena's baby. This is going to be quite some performance — I wouldn't miss it for the world! 

As soon as he returned he was glued to the tv, watching coverage of the Philae Lander on the Rosetta Mission — he is as excited by this as I was by the Apollo Moon Mission in the '60s! 

Commentators keep saying that Philae is 'the size of a washing machine' so Wilson plans to convert his tumble-dryer into a make-believe Comet Lander as soon as he's finished watching the tv coverage.
