Is this one of those car parks in the middle of nowhere, where everyone meets up, and say they belong to an astronomical society and they were stargazing when van loads of Police turn up, shouting 'What's going on 'ere then'.
If it is, remember not to flash you lights when you arrive, as you'll lose your night vision. ;)

Genny for hire.........................

Read that how you like ;)  :cheesy:

Any dates for the Beachy head car park.

But dont forget there is a Harvester just behind it, unless there's another car park im not aware of, and it will probably close about 10ish,

so for 5 hours of darkness you will have cars in and out of that place and along the road as well.

Not including the local fuzz :police:

That is not one of those "dogging" car parks is it??

Only jesting, Mick, I am not struck on christmas, especially as the 8' tree has to come down from the loft, on a series of pulleys, sort of like National Lampoons Christmas     ;)

Weather not looking very favourable for the weekend - Rain, Wind, Cloud, Clear - take your pick  :-?

Possibility of clearish skies Saturday - mostly because the high winds will blow the clouds away and dry the rain up  :(

Aye, some of the balloon folk were discussing predicted paths for possible launches this weekend. The high altitude winds look like being particularly fast. An average launch from Cambridge was predicted to end up in Belgium, and a launch from Northern Ireland was predicted to fall just short of Denmark. I don't think either launch will happen.
