Hi Clive
The only time that I can see the band of the milky way from my place is on a dark clear winter night and if there is a power cut. Failing this I wait till I go to one of the star parties on the other side of the country but as I don't drive taking my equipment is out of the question. I have had some nights where light pollution and sky glow is so bad that I can only just make out all the major stars in Orion
Best wishes
Gordon
