Thanks chaps. Appreciate the kind feedback and encouragement.
It's certainly been slim pickings up here in S-E Q'land...for quite a while
There's a high pressure system currently making its way across the SE which might deliver something decent in the way of seeing, but having said that it's not a particularly strong system. Only 1025 at its centre...so we'll see what it delivers.
There's a low pressure trough and a couple of cold fronts behind it, which will send things pear-shaped...but might be quite nice right before those arrive. Just depends on their timing.
Fingers crossed, eh?
