I think the path took it over northern France, but what happened up here in Lancashire?
Remember it well, we went up Pendle hill, it was jam packed.
Most people had pieces of card with holes in and were reflecting the image on a piece of paper 9supposed to be the safest way of viewing it) but I had some glasses out of electric welders goggles, got a belting view through them, people were queuing up to borrow them for a look, should have charged them
