In the summer it was still evening twilight right up to around 11:00pm with dawn twilight appearing around 3:00am. Winter was just clouds – low, miserable grey clouds with the odd clear night arriving with temps at -12°C, so in my case, I really don’t think that I can complain – just yet!

Now that sounds like weather to complain about!!!

Yeap as soon as there something extra special to view you can expect total cloud cover!! and when new gear arrives you might as well stay in bed! I was lucky to get a quick glimpse of comet Holmes through the clouds but has been c*** since..
