Sure was there, but we didn't risk getting clouded out and travelled a bit north, near the Radio Telescope. Which happened to be right near the edge, luckily for us we were still in the path.

This is our page on it.

Not a bad night, fairly moist on the oval though. Where was Peter and Paul? What scopes did you guys have? I was right on the end closest to the carpark with my black 8" Dob.

As shaun said, we met up there, I wonder if you have made your mind up yet? (what scope to get) Glad you had fun looking through my scope too. Was good meeting up with someone off the list.

I doubt I will be going back to Westminster, probably okay for the guys down south, but I would prefer to go North for much darker skies. At least I know what it is like now, will have to make an effort to get to that other site, tooperang.

Again good to meet you shaun.
