It was OK for us at the Oaks from dark until around 1:15am, which saw the fog and clouds close us down completely. I was having fun with the new 8" Newt and Jenny was having a real ball picking off (with the help Astronut & others) Messier objects through her 3" Newt. She saw (all through this little scope) M6, M7, M8, M22, M41, M42/43 & M45. I managed to catch Andromeda before she slipped into the clouds. Very faint but nevertheless visible. A great night had by all!
