I was roused from my bed before dawn this morning and summoned to the living room to take part in Wilson's Eclipse Drill — a safety exercise designed to ensure that everyone knows what to expect during the eclipse, thus avoiding any distress or panic.
The drill consisted of everyone donning their Eclipse Safety Glasses and looking at the ceiling light while Wilson switched it on and off. Several times.
Once he was satisfied that all would be well, he ushered us out into the garden to witness the Big Event itself. As we filed out he wished us all a Very Happy Eclipsmas!
Tomorrow I shall post dramatic photos taken at what W calls 'the Moment of Maximum Eclipsity.'
