    I can't be bothered to work this out, but I'm sure someone here will
    do it in a few mins.

    There's an ad for a Ford on TV at the moment - the soft top version of
    the Ka, I think. Quite a funky ad, it shows the woman driving all day
    from dawm, to get as much sun as possible. At the end of the ad she's
    driving towards the setting sun, and as she puts her foot down and
    accelerates towards it, it appears to rise.

    So, the question is, how fast would you have to travel to catch the
    setting sun?

    [1] not at all hard really.

    Heh, I'm waiting for the Hogwarts V "The Worst Witch" quidditch play offs.
    Hopefully that Hermione Granger will get a good kicking.

    <fx: looks around>

    It appears so, yes.

    I imagine it's a bit early to think of Claire ... and a wizard's
    sleeve. ;)
