Title: Observing Session - Tuesday 15th June
Post by: Mike on Jun 14, 2010, 10:44:37
Don't forget we have an Observing Session tomorrow. Meet at the Change of Horses from 8:15pm onwards. If it is clear we move onto the field.

Weather forecast for tomorrow night looks good so bring your scope or binoculars along. Don't forget it gets cold so bring  a chair, warm clothing and a flask of hot drink too.

Yup, and it was nice to get a 'scope under a sky somewhat better than is usually served up in my locality. Got home around 01:00. Good job it wasn't a Friday - I would have kept going until sun-up
