Believe it or not, the sky is reasonably clear. The cloud even broke up enough to get some C/2012 F6 shots.

Ken,
The first image solves: http://live.astrometry.net/status.ph...01302-92497811 (centre 00:50:56.394, -81:54:53.200)
The second: http://live.astrometry.net/status.ph...01302-22796260 (centre 00:50:57.525, -81:54:49.350)

Thanks Andrew,
As mentioned I have never done a solve like this before and this proves out that what I had imaged was in fact DA14 so I'm having that warm fuzzy feeling you get when something that appears a difficult task all goes well and that I was able to pick it up while still a long way out at 10:30 on Friday night.
So now I'll solve the images that I have for just after three hrs later when I lost it for some reason, I'll get to see how far off I was.
It didn't last much after that anyway as the clouds closed in about 2.30 maybe 3.00 so I packed up and headed off to bed.
Thanks

Ken.
