Well it's 1:10 am and the cold has won! Only managed a couple of hours in the end but very nice. Even at the end I had a quick look at Alpha Crucis and the double was steady and clear despite getting quite low.
Nabbed a bunch of galaxies in Grus, done nearly all the galaxies there brighter than mag 12.5 now I think and a few fainter. Also some bits and pieces in Pavo as well as some old favourites. M17 was awesome along with M20 and NGC 7006 and NGC 7009.
Anyway of to bed to try to get some feeling back in my extremities!!
