Hi Paul,

Friday is good for me too and the prediction is for little or no cloud cover, so I'm game ball (fingers crossed). Won't get there until eight'ish.

Okay guys, that's great, had visions of being up there on my own.

If there are any more particpants, let me know, if the weather hold true a large haul of Messiers is within our reach.

Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better programs, and the universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the universe is winning.

Well it's wall to wall cloud here and no let up on the horizon.

Tonight is called off, if tomorrow proves to be better there is a session planned, I won't be there myself.

Fingers crossed that it clears up and good luck to anyone who will be out.
