They doubted, also, last week,
Some even said they knew it.
But we with hope, we perservered,
And the clear sky we did view it.

Well, another good night at the PC missed, thanks to my equatorial mount needing to be fixed...again, for the fourth time since I got it less than 12 months ago.

Actually I've had 2 new and 2 reconditioned mounts in that time.
Here's hoping it holds up for the next night at PC.... I'm havin' withdrawals.

Great night and a good little roll up.
Views were very nice, between intermitent fog.
But when they were on they were very nice.
Saturn was a treat.
Thanks to all who came, great comapny as usual.
Nice to meet Shane and Sue. Come again soon.
The cake was very nice thankyou.
Joe, apleasure as always.
Bones, good to catch up with you again.
Geoffro and GBT owl, it would not be the same without you.
I am not sure, but I think for the first time the SCT's outnumbered the Dobs.
See ya next month
