Deep Sky Camp - 5th to 7th April

[Mike]

So who is going this weekend? The weather forecast is looking quite promising.

I've sent an email to Jackie at Rother Valley to ask about the state of the field and our usual corner.

I'll be coming if it's Rother Valley - it'll allow me to pop home and continue work on Dee's shed.

Ground conditions at home are much firmer now so I think it is also very likely RV is open.

OK it is definitely Rother Valley. Here is Jackie's reply:-

Dear Mike,

Yes we have plenty of space for the weekend. The condition of the field is fine, we had caravans and motorhomes over Easter Weekend without any problems.

I will save you pitches 12 onwards.

I won't be here myself and we have new Wardens and a new Reception so please let everyone know that they must stop when they enter the site and make themselves known to the new Wardens - Phil & Lindy.

Many thanks

Jackie

Petra and I will be there. It's been too long since the last one.

[Carole]

I would like to come, but as I got absolutely perished last night being outside for a few hours I don't think I can face it unless it warms up a fair bit before the end of the week.

Forecast looking excellent 

Friday night clear.
Sunny all day Saturday with little wind and a few degrees warmer than of late.
Saturday night mainly clear.

There is a slim chance I might be able to make this weekend too!

[The Thing]

[Fay]

What do you mean "time to recover"?  You mean you won't have time to process all the excellent data from 2 clear nights in time to go to a wet and windy Kelling?

Typical,

Having worked every weekend for the last two years, I finally managed to get the last few off, as weve finished
our big projects at work. 

I was looking forward to this weekends DSC 

Im now working Fri Sat and sunday, 
so I wont be able to make it.

I've also managed to get Conjunctivitis  so that would have probably scuppered me anyway.
