November 14th (local time) - Australia & South Pacific
The most easily accessible place for totality is probably Cairns (where Mrs TA just happens to be this week) where a two minute totality will occur soon after sunrise on 14th, but a partial eclipse will be visible over much of eastern Australia and the whole of New Zealand. And bits of Chile at sunset!
Thanks for the the heads-up, TA. I'll be experiencing a partial eclipse on Wednesday between about 6:40 and 8:20 am local time. Sunrise will be about 6:10 and I'm due to start work at 6:30, so I'm not going to miss that.

Try Solara?

The sun should be abolished altogether. Useless thing. It only shines when it's daylight anyway.

Since seeing this thread I've had this song in my head, so I thought I'd let it get stuck in yours too.
Turn it up loud, you know you want to.
