Thanks for the heads-up, I got a nice double-transit (actually a 6-banger) last year, hopefully this year brings good conditions too.

[jjjnettie]

Yeah, I didn't post the images I took last year, the seeing was horrible.

Hallo!
I ordered clear skies for Europe and Australia at light vessel ELBE 1

Just don't buy any new Astronomy gear for at least a week before the transits.
BTW, the times stated are for the eastern states of Australia. They probably don't apply for Europe. Sorry.
