Well Done!
Lot's of the next generation attended with obvious enthusiasm.
The weather was clement. Good skies. Great views of saturn through a suitable range of equipment. M42 was prominent even in binos.
Nice people!
I dropped down from Firhouse and I enjoyed meeting people with a similar passion for the skies.
Well done to the organisers!

Clear Skies,

Thanks for your kind comments, we had extraordinary luck with two clear evenings even though it was extremely cold. Posting report of evenings on new thread.
