Upcoming DSC...

What! is it not raining in Hartfield this weekend

I didn't mean this weekend Tony, what I meant was if this weekend is not viable due to weather then we could try Hartfield another weekend to make up for it.

I must agree that this weekend is looking like a potential washout. It would be easy enough to reschedule one for January if people don't go to this one. I think we should do that anyway regardless. For 2010 I am going to plan official DSC's every 2 months instead of 3 commencing in January.

That would be great Mike

That sound excellent.

[Carole]

I agree, there certainly seems to be a call for it.  Then if one is a washout then it's not so long to wait until the next one.

Great idea Mike, there certainly seems to be enough interest for having them that often.

[MarkS]

DSC every 2 months is a great idea Mike.

We can "infill" with UDSCs to cover the remaining months!

Mark,

Was going to say the same thing, as this is what we have done for the past months.

PS.................This is the first one I've missed,  and so I'm a bit disappointed, but if no-one is going, that makes me feel a bit better. 
I'm now pitching the new tent up in the living room, while I take the roof of the East Wing.

This is the first one I've missed,

Technically you haven't missed one if it doesn't happen 

SO I won't be missing one either 

[mickw]

Still no change in the forecast - Wind/Rain 

Definitely not going

Blimey one every month.. I get enough grief & earache trying to get to two a year.. I am obviously going about this all wrong....!!!! So any hints & tips from all you regulars on how to make this a little less painful....?

Still no change in the forecast - Wind/Rain 
Definitely not going 

I'm still seriously considering going to DSC this weekend if it looks like there will be reasonable night-time gaps between rain belts.  The wind rules out the C11 so it'll be widefield only.

I'll have to take extra French pastis.

[mickw]

Why ain't no one down here yet

Tony, save a good spot for Mark and I'm sure he'll share the Pastis with you 

[JohnP]

Why ain't no one down here yet!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So Tony mate you down on the end of that pier in Dover again.....!!!!!!
