Was glad to be packing up the eq6 rather than the meade at the end of the night... much easier!!

Little image for you all, its not great...but if you squint a bit, you can see what I was going for lol

That 'fog filter' really works well I think!
Not a bad effort there Andrew and as RB said, the clear sky was foretold!

Don't think I can make it this weekend either.

I can make it this weekend either.
Next time.

I can make it if the weather plays nice

[RB (Andrew)]

A bit cloudy atm.
Should clear later though acording to my 7timer! chart.
I've turned on my weathercam in case you want to keep an eye on the weather till evening.

Click here for my weathersite.

(Just ignore the forecast as I can't get it to predict accurately atm).

Good luck for tonight all who are going and don't forget the gate may be locked but you can enter through the other driveway further down the road I'm told.

Regards
RB

We are experiencing a fairly strong Easterly breeze here at the moment.
Not very comfortable observing conditions.
Thats turning me off a bit.

What do you reckon Geoff?
Sounds like it would be just you and me, again.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

i am not keen - but would make up the numbers if we get any interest

cut off time for me would be 4pm ( oops it's 4pm now)

no numbers - no go

11.30 is a bit long to wait for the moon to go down.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]
