      Sorry to hear that. This week hasn't really been up to much here either. Very clear skies, but the seeing has generally been very rough.

  12. SnakeyJ

    Hmm - Bigger FOV or Mosaic for M31

  13. SnakeyJ

    Hmm - not the curry on this occassion!

  14. SnakeyJ

    Hooray - got my PAD for EQMod!

    1. SnakeyJ

      SnakeyJ

      And it works - so much easier than pressing the keys on the computer, Just to many buttons to think about. I did discover how to turn the force feedback vibration off however ;)

  15. SnakeyJ

    Hoping that Saturn Delivers Tonight ;)

  16. SnakeyJ

    Hoping the clouds clear and the wind drops

  17. SnakeyJ

      How did feel being Saturn that night :D ? It's nice to have rings every now and then.. :)

    2. SnakeyJ

      SnakeyJ

      That would be interesting - still I have two kids running rings around me, does that count?

  19. SnakeyJ

    I've got a Telementor too :)

  20. SnakeyJ

      Nice, one Jake. Looking forward to seeing what you manage to get out of it!

      Cheers Chris - ran smoothly for the first 7 x 300s subs, then the guiding dropped out and the next 13 were terrible. Think I started a bit closer to the meridian than I had realised!

      Still got some data and tomorrow night may give another chance to catch some more subs ;)

  21. SnakeyJ

    If it rains any more I shall take up boat building and start collecting animals - 2 cats and 2 kids is a start in this line!

      We've had the sun for a couple of hours this afternoon - almost felt like spring, but sadly a brief interlude before another round of heavy rain for tonight and Saturday.

      Word of advice: Do not collect 2 wives. Did you know that the Chinese idiogram for "trouble" is 2 women under 1 roof. ;-)

    4. SnakeyJ

      SnakeyJ

      Clever people the Chinese - However I think in the case it's one of each sex, though I think Noah included a family ticket for his sons and their wives. The 2 x 2 bit may be a more recent lyrical interpretation.

  22. SnakeyJ

    If only tomorrows weather forecast can be right!

  23. SnakeyJ

    If u can't beat 'em :)

      Purely an experiment, but now completed the second (clean) install. MS servers running very slowly this pm, but my downloads this morning were very quick.

      Ascom 6.1, EQMod and PHD2 installed (not tested) - APT on the way, though may have a problem with the drivers for the EOS!
