Hi Jon and welcome to SGL. There's a few of us from the North West that are regular's at the Galloway star camp,theres an event coming up at the end of March that might interest you. It's a friendly relaxed get together of like minded people and skies are excellent. Check out Galloway Spring Star Party in the event's section. Kenny.

Yes Mike I'm good...looking forward to the SP.

Hi Mike...hope your well,sorry I didn't get back to you,did you get your lighting sorted.Been busy with new job.

Aahhh Derek...yeah I know him!

Don't think I know Darren,whats he look like.

Nice one Damian or is it Darren!!!

Hi folks,hope you all good...im hoping to do Thur's to Mon this Year as Sunday's always a cracker if you dont stay. Sorry to hear you won't be with us Derek...at least you have a worthy excuse this time. Goodluck all and see you soon. Kenny.

Hi Damian,i was only there for Sat-Tue. I got some lovley skies Sat & Sun..Mon only till 8ish....well worth the trip. Got home about 6ish today. Hope your well and see you in March if your at SP. Kenny.

Hi folks,it' been another great night up at Drumroamin campsite...skies are lit up with stars from horizon to horizon with the Milky way strewn across the sky. I managed 20 odd 4min subs of the Soul Nebula and now running some on the Flame Nebula and Horsehesd but can see the glow of the rising moon low in the east. I had a great session with my 15x70 Helios stellar binos,just scanning the sky hunting numerous messier objects which was mesmerising just taking in the vast amount of stars which you just dont get from suburban locations. I think i'll leave the mount running thru till early morning to catch a look at Jupiter and Mars before sunrise. So glad to be here under pristine skies and warming up for the spring SP in March nicely. Steak & haggis pie nearly done in oven so goodluck and see you all in march. I'll try and post images in due time. Kenny

Hi Mike...a few misty pathetic wisps of cloud came in overhead about 11ish so went in to watch MOTD and watch City bang a few more goals in. Clear now but moon's drowned all the glory out a bit. Spesk to you tommorow. Kenny.

No Phil,not this time. Seen the cold snap coming early on the week and thought 'i"ll av sum ov that'. Iv'e got the clan with me so be wrapping up soon...that b*!#¿§ωd moon is on it's way up but iv'e had a good night. Hope your keeping well and see you in March. Kenny

Errm...not yet Mike. Skies are gorgeous. Ive managed a few test shots of M45 and M31 but just trying to familiarise myself with my gear again as it's been nearly 14 months since my last outing but everything has gone smoothly. Not tried guiding yet but might give it a go later...popped in the static for a warm up and a wee whiskey. Kenny
