The moon and the city noodle shopUnless you have been in hibernation you will be aware that yesterday marked the 50th anniversary of the moon landing. I watched the landing in an old wooden noodle shop in the Makkasan area. It was said about Collins that "not since Adam has any human known such solitude" as he orbited the moon alone. I don't think the moon is actually mentioned in my favourite space song, Space Oddity, by David Bowie. Altogether now: "Giant steps are what you take, walking on the moon, I hope my legs don't break, walking on the moon."
