Many many thanks again for your hospitality Ron! Definitely great time had by all.

What were those galaxies/objects we looked at last in the dob? M97 and 51 are easy to remember. What was the edge on spiral though, for my records?

Ta,
R

Hi Ron,
looks like you finally got a bit of a break with some seeing. Terrific. Sorry I missed it. I have been here in KL now for 2 weeks and I have seen the night sky only once and then briefly and poorly.
Looking forward to ctaching up at TenChain Hill Obs on the 21st. Hope you and other citizens of the Republic of Cambroon can make it too.

Looking forward to the weekend Peter

I hope the weather is kind to us

I have been gathering some more recruits for the opening.
I hope you are having a good time in KL.
