Thanks to all for your responses.
As we (thats everyone here, not just the BOSS team) are all in this for the love of the hobby first and foremost, it is so inspiring that professional astronomers still value the input of amateurs in 2013 even with all the technology available.
In 1988 as our honoured guest of the SAS, the late great Sir Patrick Moore said that professional astronomers rely on the amateur for time dependent observations/discoveries. He and my dad were my inspiration into this hobby, I hope the letter Greg posted above will be inspiration to young and young at heart amateurs here in IIS.
Now if only this bleedin cloud would go.
