Well, in fact she rather 'felt bruised' and suffered emotionally because of all the media attention and sensationalism ... But yes, forget that dog !!! Gesendet: Sonntag, 30.

[meteorite-list] Barwell Fall 50th Anniversary Event 2015
I have been trying to work on this for a while now with various contacts made that were interested but only now have I got a reply that looks like something will happen. Barwell Parish Council rang me in the week and said that they have had a budget meeting and agreed to fund some sort of event to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Britain's largest meteorite fall. So I am now going to be working with them to sort out what can be done...I am awaiting notification of a meeting which I can attend. In the meanwhile I am asking around again from anybody wishing to help out, contribute or join in the event.?...just let me know your thoughts, ideas etc. It seems they would like an exhibition by BIMS and others at a venue in Barwell so I think I know some members who might be up for that...;-) I will be asking appropriate Universities, Museums and the Leicester Space Centre if they would like to get involved too I'll also be looking to get permission for a hunt in Barwell next year and working with Barwell Council to see if we can get a monument erected if there is enough interest generated form next years event. So watch this space.

Re: [meteorite-list] Geology Humor
Paul, thanks for the laughs! Much appreciated. It's a shame that so many people take geology for granite...
