Hi all,
Really enjoyed the weekend - excellent speakers, superb organisation, lovely setting, great food, getting to meet people off the forum and putting faces to names and avators and of course the lovely clear weather and dark skies. The view through the "beast" - the 20" was superb - Saturn and its moons, M13, the Whirlpool galaxy, as was the view through the 16" Lightbridge of Virgo with a field of view of how many galaxies. The ISS pass on the Sat evening was great as well.

Glad to have been at your service Dave! I thought one of the best questions to rattle you all was the Tom Hanks (Toy Story 2) one.

I have to say Seanie (and this is what I tried to say yesterday evening but was too shattered to get it across coherently) that you make what might be an otherwise routine competition very entertaining and something you look forward to.
