Thanks all for the good company, and for being so welcoming to Roger, who had actually never looked through a telescope for him. I think he found it quite eye opening.
Always great to see some new faces, so welcome to those who made the treck for the first time.
Now for the part I like least of all...unpacking the trailer....
Although the cloud cover was annoying early on, and seeing was only average, I saw some nice targets, my favourite for the evening was the Grus Quartet, inspired by Stongmanmike's recent image. I did not see quite so many galaxies as in his image though...the main four galaxies were nice and bright, and about half a dozen others could be detected on the edge of visibility in the environs.
Hope to see you all next month.
