A wonderful clear night was had by about 200 people at the Messier Party. A small amount of light, high level cloud appeared around sunset but had cleared by the time it was dark. I would like to thank all who were involved, including those who attended. The Lions Club provided a selection of meals, not necessarily with a heart tick, but you just can't beat a sausage in bread or bacon and egg sandwich some times, topped off with a glass of wine!
I wandered around both fields through the early evening and could see a number of those with telescopes only too keen to share their knowledge and equipment with each other. I hit the sack around midnight, but I am sure many continued until the crack of dawn.
Hope to see you all again next year!
