Rodger Dodger HH, will leave candle in the window

BS send more beer, we won't survive another night without reinforcements

[Les]

Going for camping gear in a bit....still yet to hear from someone who can spare a seat

[Carole]

Les, I don't think any-one has any spare space as camping gear and Astro gear for one person fills up a car.  I think you'll have to find a friend with a car who will come with you who doesn't have Astro kit to bring, even then it could be a squeeze.

Cornwall calling Rother Valley..... come in. 

Brilliant, Cornwall, High Halden, Rother Valley and Orpington all connecting.

Still no decent sky again last night, very disappointing.  All the weather forecasts wrong again.

Orpington here, shall I'll bring some clear skies with me ?

[MarkS]

Yes please - bring some clear skies ...

[Mike]

Right now, we have lovely clear skies and the most amount of scopes in the field we've seen for quite some time:-



Fingers crossed it's still clear once it gets dark.

Wow that is a lot - Sat24 map looking promising so fingers crossed for you all tonight... John

Wow, we had a completely clear night and every-one was up until about 3 - 3.30 some even later 3.45 and 4am

Lots of imaging done.

Great night. A bit dewy and misty at times but clear all night. I think everyone managed to get some images. Expect lots to be posted over the next week.

Reinstalled everything now and it looks like it works.
Just got to hook it all up and test it tonight.
