    Write your comments here...Just forget the Crossword book and the Bottle of ale Admiral. The crate of single malt would definitely be my favourite. Cool

    If anyone makes them I'd take a bucketful of anti-claustrophobia pills with me.

    But, if you’re used to caravanning, you should find the space lab comparatively palatial. You could always take an awning.

    Not  too  sure  about  the  kindle, TB,  I've  been  known  to  read  just  one  more 
    chapter  before  sleep  and  taking  a  fair  chunk  out  of  my  morning  as  a  result.  Don't  think  I'd  be  allowed  to  get  away  doing  that  up  there

    Write your comments here... You should be able to pick out the C&CC sites OK Brian.  -- but -- from that distance CC sites and supermarket car parks will look exactly the same.

    I wouldn't need to take anything as there would be no chance of going.  The thought of being cooped up in one space for hours without the chance of getting outside would mean no way.  Having to sit on a tube to travel across the world to see our daughter
    is torture enough and I get to walk about and get fresh air after 12 hour stints.  That just requires mindset but 6 months NO CHANCE

    It's the hours of exercise they have to do to prevent muscle wasting that would do for me - I would rather settle down to a crate of single malt - or 2!  Not for me - I would have withdrawal symptoms from fresh air!   But great that someone wants to do it!
