I agree with you Geoff. I don't think any of the weekend will be OK.
Tonight is our only opportunity and I think rather than hike all the way up to the PC and maybe disappointed, I might set up here at home and view where it is a little protected.
If you want to come around here or anyone else, feel free to lob.
We may not have any other chance now before Lostock. Any takers?

Sentimental Journey

I was just looking at the skies myself, with the thought of climbing the mountain tonight if anyone else was keen.
... But now I see clouds rolling in.
Might be on a journey to Avoca tonight.

I might try to get away for a while tonight to Ricks as well.

Hopefully the clouds will clear enough....

I may bring the little scope too....

There are patches of blue sky at my place (Sydney northern suburbs), but in general i would say 90% overcast. I take it is a no go tonight?

Its a "no go" from me too.

Too many clouds, forecast is not favourable.

A glass of red and a movie for me tonight by the looks of it.
