At the Top of the World

It brought it home how 'high' we are up here when I set up the satellite dish (to record the Hungarian GP obviously - football is bad for one's health). Aiming at a satellite in geostationary orbit around the equator requires a very odd looking set-up. Great reception of BBC 1 from Astra here by the way, unlike in southern Spain. The other clue to our latitude is that the sun stays on.
