i've had worse.... JUPITER 16 June 06

but not much....

seeing was 3-4/10, maybe a few moments as high as 5. It really wasn't up to using the 4x powermate, but damn the torpedos, I used it anyway

ah well, a couple came up at least better than the last night which was on any account pretty appalling.

yeh, that's what I reckon too DP, most of my better shots came when I blissfully ignored all weather predictions on seeing, ignored the solid cloud and occasional showers while setting up, all the while whistling to myself... just gotta show this atmosphere who's boss

me giggles at me too, a couple of days ago, my wife lisa was looking grumpy, she hopped in the shower after me and so i thought to play silly buggas and try and make eye contact and walk closer and closer to the shower pulling a silly face. problem was that the shower screen was closer and i smacked my head into the glass!!!

at least she laughed!!

The only way I can 'make eye contact' with Micki is by using our webcams...
