Well that makes a change  :o

Clear skies - too clear  :-?

I thought I had it nailed looking out the window then I ventured outside - far too many spotty white things and couldn't work out where the hell I was looking.
Luckily M45 a bit of a give away so moved across from there.

Found the comet again and Andromeda plus another mystery fuzzy - Cool  8)

It was noticeably fainter last night.  I would have got the Tak out but it was far too gusty for imaging.
