Partial Solar Eclipse UK: 12 August 2026: 7:12pm

-

The Partial Solar Eclipse which caused a blackout in Spain covered around 90-92% of the sky in blackness in Milton Keynes. It looked a bit dark blue, but not navy. Special glasses were worn to see the red moon in front of the sun. There were only 50 glasses. You could (and should) not look at the Sun or you would be very blind. The Retina in your eyes has no pain receptors, so if you have looked at the sun you will not feel it. It finished after 3 minutes. The next one will be at 2050. The next full eclipse will be at 2090, the last being at 1999.

|I went to Open University at 6:00pm to see it. We waited for 72 minutes to see the Solar Eclipse. Before it, we managed to see the sun through a solar telescope after waiting in the queue. We were allowed to go there to see it because my dad goes there for badminton and met his club mates. During the eclipse the sky became a bit dull and when the sky became brighter we left after Solar Eclipse.

Did you watch the solar eclipse with Helioglasses (Special glasses that can see the moon without damaging your eyes)? If you didn't, but experienced it, it was still a great moment! Valencia in Spain was like midnight, and the UK was dark blue (not navy). Still, it was very cool!!!

Sir Birdington 4: Future of Apocalypses

-
 You must, must know the icon Sir Birdington. The Future awaits... A s the world started healing from wreaths of reptiles and mammals, the places of Birdship became very crowded. "Oh bless Lord Bird!" they would say at a holy Birdship a few years after his death. But now he is no longer prayed for. Birds have, well, moved on. Soon enough, some Bird would conquer Earth. Birds are technically Reptiles. Having overthrown their previous masters, a new change would come. Lord Marmaduke would fall to the leader of the mammals. His brave men would vanquish them. Just 20 years ago, mammals still were in South America. They are now consisted of small rodents today and llamas that'd been herded back. Sceptile was one of the biggest nuisance to Birds. Only 90,000 years ago, he completely obliterated the Phorushracids, who were the dominating ground birds. They had raw power, but their numbers started declining after Smilodon moved in. Sceptile didn't bother about him. He kept th...

Criminal Capybaras

-
In a giant house in Las Vegas, the Capybara Criminals were coming up with no good... The Capybaras were known as "The Capybara Cops". However, innocents were arrested, and the true thieves succeeded in their heists. The "Bank Rank" was made by the leader of the Capybara Mafia, Capy, who came up with the idea of a "Bank View" once a year. It was the opportunity for numerous steals. The General agreed, saying it would be "Easy to catch outlaws". But Capy was very clever - while he was in a meeting with Duke of Notting hill, a taser gun was shot at him. The guards blamed the Duke, as he was holding a Nerf Rifle in a swimming pool with General Garry. This General sank rapidly, thus causing the death of the Duke. And for extra precautions, the desperately breathing Duke was jumped on by the General's friend, making the Noble sink.  Capy told his criminal masterminds about this. Were they pleased. They gifted him a chocolate cake, with money on top...
