Hi,

I'd like to give the meade back to someone is anyone going i.e. Greg, Mike, Geof, Ian or Paul?

See you in the pub if you are.


Ian

I hope to be there, but if not I'll give you a call.

Rocket Pooch

Ok, I'll bring the mount along as well.

Will the skies evey clear?

Mike

Chris,

I look after it so I'll take it off your hands at the pub. Hopefully the sky will be clear enough to use it !!

Well the Obs Session was a good one. For the first time in months we actually went to the field. There were 11 people and 3 scopes were set-up and several pairs of binoculars were passed around, including my monsters that got a proper test (of muscles to hold them).

...and I hope I've now re-connected the two parts of my RA slow motion handle so that next time I can steer the scope half-way passably...

The thin high cloud made for rather fuzzy views, but at least something was visible.

Greg

Ignore my prevoius comment in the forum. It was obviously a late start to the evening' s event. Glad to see you enjoyed yourselves!!

Mike

Greg, who didn't you ring one of us on the mobile to see if we were still at the pub?
