I'll be there with three gremlins assuming Geoff's assessment of the weather conditions is accurate.

Someone once said, "Never trust anyone who says Trust Me"
They would have to be untrustworthy NOT to trust you O Wise One.
Weather does look a bit dodgy-but I trust you Geoff.
What time to lob?

It must have been a good night for you folks.
Its 11.15 and no-one is up yet to post the nights proceedings.

I hope the night was good for those who made it. The night cleared well on the Coast.
I got my scope out at home and the seeing was fairly steady.
I had some nice colour in the Great Red Spot as it made its way across old Jupiter.

Probably the best night ever at the Pony Club. Awesome seeing conditions and great company again. Thanks to all for the looks through their scopes.
All the scopes were showing pristine views of everything particularly Jupiter and the G spot (oops GR spot).
What more can I say but anyone who missed it missed some of the most stable seeing conditions for quite some time.
Again....Awesome!!
