G'day All,
I'm starting to wonder if it is 1 month of cloudy and rainy weather for every inch of aperture on a new scope. Yet another gloomy forecast for tonights eclipse.

[Dennis]

Mate - I feel for you! One of the benefits of being here, on IIS, is that you can enjoy the results from other members when local conditions are bad.

Cheers

Dennis

[duncan]

Yeah i realize that Dennis but it was bad enough to miss the comet but this as well. Geez i must have been a bad mongrel in my last life!
I s'pose i had better just laugh it off:pr ey:

[Dennis]

Nahh; if you had been really bad, you’d have reincarnated in the N of England where I was born. We had 4 or 5 clear nights per annum! LOL

Cheers

Dennis

A little place called Milla Milla only 50klms from here only had 1 day of sunshine last year. I just might have to move! LOL.

[Dennis]

Ouch! I guess I need to re-calibrate my experiences now, and consider myself quite lucky to have had the 4 or 5 nights that I got!

Cheers

Dennis

I feel for you Duncan and hope by some chance you will get clear skies.
It would be gut wrenching I'm sure if it's clouded out for you.

Good luck mate.

[duncan]

Thanks for your thoughts Andrew but one look at the sat Photo's and i've all but given up,LOL.

[duncan]

[duncan]
