Qualia

Delightful..:) It's not bad here either for a change and it may even last the entire weekend..:)

Yup mid020s here Rob - pretty nippy by comparison to your neck of the woods! I have two bottles of Pinot Grigio delle Venezie in the Fridge to cool me down later! Was looking forward to a good night at the scope, but looking a wee bit hazy out there now... .

Mid 20s that should say!

Q, sounds like you had a superb time, im taking the new mrs nightfisher camping to north yorkshire in july, will also take tal100 he he

Where was that?

Pyrenees' Mountains, Spanish side.

It's tradition and has been passed down though the ages.

I suggest we break this silly cycle :D

:D I think it will be easier to find the answer for light speed travel..

No, their snow whites offspring.. ;(

Hehehehe. It was meant to be a serious question... :-)

Isn't it something to do with the core crystalising carbon over time..

Good Stuff :), did you get some observing done with your 'Moonshane' Dob?

Goodo, at last eh. It is blowing a gale here and the rain is at about 40' to the ground, feels like November.

You can't be serious, Oz...

Great replies and thank you :-). Jules your own was positively evil :-)

absolutely no harm intended rob, and i bet she has a voice like an angel

I'm sure some one will sort it soon, but in the meantime, if you hit refresh after posting, that does the trick!

admin are working behind the scenes to deal with this. Qualia, thanks for posting this

Thanks Nightfisher.

If it's around twelve am you will have the first ever partial solar eclipse in the dark...;)

Qualia, off topic I know, but couldn't seem to get a message to you - just wanted to thank you personally for your advice on the last thread I opened! It was much appreciated! :-)

Grand :) Still draeming about them here

Nice Rob! FOrgotten what they look like myself, but the weather forecast is vaguely promising for tomorrow...after yet more snow, that is!

good to hear you got a good session in

I've had one night out in the desert/scrub lands since it arrived :-( I've got a first light report due and hopefully will have it written up tonight or tomorrow.

I doubt it will be cloudy in Spain until September! It's clear here but it is also very foggy.

only 17?think yourself lucky

The suspense...tell us! Bu tbe cautious when opening up in case one of the boxes has yet more clouds in it!

now do you want to swap your boxes for box no22? or stick with what you have?

Swap or no swap?

Swap or no swap?

no good :(

very nice ! wish i had the time to enjoy but shift work sucks!

Oh dear, that's tragic...:D

Evil Grin

Ha, I think I have only seen the sun about three times in the last six weeks....;)

Yes, I had a peek at it yesterday. Looking very busy isn't it.

lucky to see any thing in the sky...........pesky clouds

We'll have to work something out! There's been about 36 days of clear skies, not all them great but suffice. Today is bright blue and hot.

wow, talking about testing one's stamina...

Hope you are making time for sketches andblog updates.... :). Sounds like a good extended session!

Thanks, Mike. I'm not too sure what to do this time round. I was thinking of doing on entry on log-book keeping?

Now you make me think I should head out now and do some solar viewing...:)

Good on ya. The sun really is quite active today.

I love a good sunrise. Was spectacular on the way to work, with a thick frost on everything and the sky was just beautiful.

Hope you guys get some decent weather this weekend. Here it's just getting to cold, so I'll probably do roof top gazing. I just don't have the clothes for sub-zero temperatures in the desert.

Her in the UK we think of spain for being hot, but i bet the dessert is a cold place on a winters night

Ay, it's true, folk do think it's hot all year here. I think Spain is the second most mountainous country in Europe, so temps can be very, very low.

Ditto fella,rubbish transparency and the moon was a pain.

Shame Qualia - would have thought the cold desert skies were just ideal...?

Yeah, it is wierd, but even the forecast page said seeing would be bad and I couldn't work out why this would be so. I think it may have had something to do with the winds. Anyway, tonight was a lot better, but soooo cold. Desert-arid lands really do get chilly. Anyway, a fun, if short evening was had around Lyra.
