I love rain.

I think this is the worst weather I've experienced in over 2 years. We're already 12 days into the New Year. Not a single night out under the stars and I've only seen the Sun 5 times!! Absolute rubbish. Foggy all weekend and now it's tipping down :-(

Just a quick one to thank everyone here at SGL. I hope you all enjoy all the magic that this winter season brings x

72 hours of continuous rain and counting. Never seen anything like it! Only last week we were in the high sun-shining 20ºc's. Hopefully clear up in a few days but certainly winter has started with avengence.

seriously.. Dr Who banner!!!

Discovering something as frustrating as a cloudy night. Crystal clear nights with chronic seeing conditions. Stars looking like head lights, craters all a blur and Jupiter like a smeary blob. Not even the little 4" could win :-(

Thermals on Ready for Tonight!

Blazing hot day today. Eclipse is in progress. Really quite pretty :-)

Loving the Halloween header on the site :) Nice one Admins!

I have given in to temptation, after a very long quest and purchased a TAL125r Achro refractor, will do a write up once i have had time to do some viewing with this very rare 5" Siberian beauty

Just back from the docs...broken toe :-)

Forecast looks promising - may as well go set-up in optimism :)

off to Skye for 2 weeks. Don't know whether to take lightbridge, Cr6 or 200 on goto or the lot ?

Just in from an all nighter. Absolutely bush-wacked.

I love astronomy... even if i am a complete novice!

Cloud passing - cautious optimism returning!

Supposedly clear sky is actually pretty murky - hopefully the bright stuff will still shine through :)

Think i need a new hobby, one that work and weather wont interfere with it

It's so hot today. 40ºC and climbing. I deliciously melted while viewing the sun today. The tripod was impossible to carrying back indoors without my winter glooves on.
