OVER the last few months, newspapers have been running an advertisement for "star naming" - for Valentine's Day or for a loved one who has died.
Despite what was depicted some months ago on Coronation Street, when Curley named a star after Raquel, people still pay money for the privilege of having a star named after them. This is not possible.
Any person who pays for this service will be very distressed. The paperwork you get and the fee you pay is worthless.
You may as well go out on a clear dark night, pick a star you like and name it, as this is all the paperwork and fee is worth.
