May, Ireland, rain? What do you think? :laugh:

Worth looking out for, so, if the great comet of 2013 and the great meteor storm of 2014 comes to fruition, then we have some good times ahead.

hoping for a clear sky here ,,,,, yea, good luck with that.

That's not a bad idea Dave, an IFAS-orientated get-together somewhere relatively close by and cheap. There are some dark-sky parks in northern Europe and Scotland and Wales...
