They are all down the pub Mark, only me here and I'm not going to be much use especially with games.

The wifi is slow at best and I'm not having any trouble with G3.

I've not heard of any other youngster coming. HTH :grin:

I'm here Tony although lacking electricity at present lol. I usually use my phone as a hot spot mark. To be honest. Expect it not to work and if it does then bonus. But I wouldn't say it would. It's rather a high tinterweb game is minecraft.

Whey hey glad you made it Gaz!!

While they went down the pub I had a peep of the Milky way so that was a bonus.

Lenny took me sight seeing earlier today as he had to pick up the BBQ & some of the roads we ended up on were more like farm tracks lol. I even went to your dark sky sight for a look.

God that must of been frightening, most important thing is your Ok thank god.

We won't be able to pop down to meet anyone like I had hoped because of work, hope you all have lovely clear nights and a great time.

Glad you are Ok Steve, must have been scary.

Best you do the Lottery, your luck has to change for the better.

Stay safe.

My appearance is looking dodgey too  :sad:  The University announced out of the blue on Wed that they are shutting down our astronomy course, so I'm up to my eyes in working with my coursemates to stop this happening.  This is on top of other commitments I had this week, so I think my candle is about to meet in the middle!  And I really need to  keep some energy for the function tomorrow night in London and not turn up looking like a Panda after a week of late nights and no sleep!  

I'll see how I feel later - don't rule out a quick visit, but it doesn't look like the long viewing session with my Telementor next to the big dobs in the dark skies I was really hoping for is practical  :sad:

Helen
