Myself and Mrs Rimmer are interested in perhaps coming up for a quick hello.
Perhaps we shall see you all there.
If we can get there, I will bring the horrible Chinese 6-inch Newt. Not great quality, but a light bucket no less

A totally satisfying experience !!!! Almost as good as..., I should not say it here.
One of the best nights I've had at PC. Clear and steady.
My 10" scope was the largest aperture scope in the field.
My new 21mm Ethos was brilliant. Views of Tarantula, Eta Carina and Orion Nebula unforgettable.
I enjoyed my bino with a pair of new 16mm WO Uwans, after removing the rubber collars so my nose could go between the eyepieces...
Thank you Geoff and Geoff and Allan for your company and interesting conversation touching wide ranging topics..., loved the heated discussion on the merits of some religions.
For those who did not attend - you have missed a hell of a night that may not happen for many months to come.

i;m sorry i missed a great night,
i had a working crew at my place & didnt finnish until 7.30, i then got in the spa to take away the pain. The sky looked so good i had to set up my scope & remembered how to do it . It was fantastic , has been stated 6 in the trap,I believe there is a 7th does anyone know where it is ,i maybe fooling myself but i thought i got glimpses of a 7th ( no alccohol ).
Missed the banter but still had a great night
