Thanks John!
I must get out and have a look (using an approved solar filter of course) at this most rare of events; the Sun seems to have been extraordinarily quiet of late.
Cheers
Dennis

I had a look at the Sun on Sunday morning and noticed an itsy bitsy little dot at about 1 o'clock, was that it? I thought it may have been bit of dust on the eyepiece.

It's been so long without 'activity' I'd forgotten all about sunspots. :doh:
I miss imaging ol' Sol.

Good! Hopefully they are coming back...
(I missed it BTW, but I did think of getting the scope out but was busy)
