      Which direction are you going? The LA route I found very long as it was 2 long hops, I would guess the UK - Eastward route would have 2 stops ??. Odd I recall the flight out but cannot recall the flight back at all.

    Will be starting my pier excations when I get back from New Zealand. What pier are you going to use? Sorry I don't know the source of other chemical anchors but have you tried any 'Scre Fix' shops?

    Welcome to SGL... Not always satellites, often can be space junk....and there is lots of that. When I was a youngster in the 60's it was a major event to see a satellite in transit....today....two a penny. But the ISS is impressive.

      Rained an hour ago, now CLEAR. Arcturus visible due West and Saturn S West, still somewhat light however, on the cool side. Looks promising.

    2 weeks and no clear night. Looked promising last night. Setup and it went dark...and the clouds rolled in.

      Been clear a few miles south of you a few times in the last couple of weeks, you must have had some bad luck, or have a rotten local weather pattern.

      Guess you have been but if not personally I would avoid going via LA. LONG tiring 2 hop flight. Cost me my birthday as well - it didn't exist owing to the date line. Never sure about the "skies" the Maori name is Land of the Long White Cloud.

    Mrs Baggy has landed...she arrived after a 14 hour flight from Shanghai last night.
