Chasing Midnight New Years Eve 2010

I rather doubt it to be honest - Tajikistan is a run down, politically unstable flat broke ex Soviet Republic. No-one is the slightest bit interested in them.

Hello everybody

I mentioned in a previous post that I was going to put together a spreadsheet, to help me with Chasing Midnight. I have completed it now, and I have decided to share it with you! :-thumbup

Whilst I have tried my best to make the information correct and complete, I would be amazed if there are no mistakes nestling in there somewhere. In particular, I'm not 100% convinced that I've got all the times right. I've pulled the information together from previous years' threads. In some cases, the information about where midnight arrives when is unclear, and at times even contradictory!

Anyway, please can everybody scrutinise this spreadsheet and make any necessary amendments (including stuff I've missed out, rather than just got wrong!) Please also put your details in the 'changelog' in the 'Notes' workbook, before re-posting, so we can keep track of the latest and definitive version.

I hope everything is pretty self-explanatory, but if not then please let me know. I hope this helps.

4 days to go!
Best wishes,

Ed

Eek! It won't let me attach the spreadsheet, it says that the ".xls" suffix is an invalid filetype. However it also says in the "Upload" dialogue box that this is an acceptable filetype!

Any ideas please?

Either zip it or take a screenshot of it and attach that.

Much easier way to get Uzbekistan is Uzbek TV which is definitely available on iptv.

FM remlap posted a few screenshots off 40E a few years ago. Im not rigging an extra dish specially for their new home on 53E when I can watch via broadband and dont need to go and get cold outside..

BTW at 0000 strangling cats at Edinburgh Castle is BBC 1 Scotland. Alba is reported to have the singing shortbread on which is too bizarre to even contemplate for me
