Some of you may remember me mentioning that I got one of those "Name a star" kits for my 40th birthday, from the in-laws.
So... Without further ado. Please allow me to introduce you to...
John Vella 25th November 1968
How cool is that?!?

I don't know... but I'll ask the mother in law when I see her next and report back. Edit to add: I'll bet you can't guess what my desktop wallpaper, (at work) has been changed to?

I don't get the fascination, tbf. Only you are on that star screen, where is everyone else?  I think you were conned. On another nose, wouldn't it be cool to have someone name a star after you. Awh. |

John I'm in the star club too. Mine's called Cazbert. I wonder if we're near each other up there *waves* |

I could have listed all of the other star names, but since the only person I'm interested in, (in that particular region of space) is me, why would I bother? Also, I have had a star named after me. I asked the mother in law and the wife to choose a name, but they both said "No, it's your present so you get to choose".
If you let me have the co-ordinates I can check, but it's all a matter of perspective. *waves back*
