Since last posting, my mate and I have both managed to get that afternoon off work, so no problems, we'll beat the after work rush out west, should be there by 5 or 6pm. But thanks for the consideration, and see you there.

Only a matter of DAYS!! Really looking forward to catching up with everyone!

I'm bringing some rope this time so I can form orderly queues for viewing through the Tasco...

Only managed one night as SV. Had a blast, froze and got a bit dewey but enjoyed looking through some awesome bits of kit. Decided I need better eyepieces. Thanks to all those who let me have a gawp through their scopes!
Will definately be back!
