[Carole]

Another great collection Roberto, you can certainly get a lot done with a remotely controlled set up.

I can only get half into this month's presentation, the other half will have to go into the next month. 

Can you remind me of your Bortle Scale, is it 6 or 7? 

Carole

[Roberto]

Thank you Carole. According to Clearoutside from FLO, I'm Bortle 6 for whatever that means.

I won't be in the UK next week so will miss the meeting (again  )

Fantastic collection again Roberto- well done
