5 loads of washing  :o

Was that a years worth then ?
Pair of pants, socks, T shirt then then fresh stuff on Sunday - clean trousers if I can't bend at the knee any more  :D

Got some clouds coming over Northiam but seems patchy with more clear bits than cloudy bits, still breezy but beerable  ;)

Well just had really bad hailstone storm here in Banstead - Clear blue skies now. Fay - hope your scope is well protected...

Good luck to all those that are venturing down....

Just rushed out to cover it John, a tad late!

Just arrived, some rather nasty looking clouds hanging around and a slightly feeble attempt to rain!  :-?
Shoot for the stars, reach the tree tops!

Well I don't know how you guys are getting on at Rother Valley but it is about 80% cloud cover here in Orpington.

100% cloud now and the satellite image is showing a huge blob of cloud that looks like it will be around for the next few hours at least.

We set up and aligned at Rother Valley then it clouded up.   It might rain and then it might be clear.  Pastis is delicious!

MarkS

Heavy rain now.  All squashed into Duncan's tent drinking Disaronno.

Well i'm glad you are enjoying yourselves despite the weather. I set up in my garden tonight and had all kinds of problems. Also, my 8 year old trusty Pentium M laptop has started to die. The screen has gone all weird :( But i'm glad it died at home and not whilst I was at Rother to be honest.
