  2. Don't get to comfy I've changed the headlight bulbs in my car to 2mil lumens, and we will be late just saying πŸ‘Ή
  3. Holly moley, you lot, here's me thinking we will be one of the first to arrive again and you all have set up camp, is that Deren being threating you all to turn up early🀣
  4. When you all turning up, we will be there as usual Saturday, but won't stay for the following weekend,
  5. Ye sound like some deranged vampire deren, fresh meat πŸ– πŸ˜‚
  6. Hi all any one got a spare eq8 mount, got myself a new tube but forgot to take the weight into account for my eq6, it works but might be a tad iffy on guiding, and before a certain party chips in, I know what a muppet should have checked before I bought
  7. Sounds as if your getting to feel the cold John, setting up shop in the awning 🀣
  8. Glad you are all getting some clear skies, or is it clear glasses, πŸ€” . Iam sure there will be plenty of banter in the warm room during the rainy seasonal nites, hope the skies clear up a bit lads and looking forward to some good images on the posts, will be thinking if you all while we are struggling to stay cool in gran canaria, πŸ˜€, hope to see all the old suspects in the autumn camp, enjoy the party guys,

  11. Well that's another star camp come and gone, weather wasn't as kind as it has been but still some folk got some stuff done, big thanks to lesley and ralph for again providing us with superb facilities and an excellent pie peas and chip supper, iam sure we all enjoyed and appreciated it, big thanks to our own Derek for arranging the pies etc I would keep u some but might be a tad moldy by the time you get them, hope u and your good lady are felling better soon. And a huge thanks to all the lads and lassies for you generous contributions and enthusiasm in munching through as many pies as possible. Ps Ian yer slipping only 5! Out of practice iam thinking. Thanks again all, stay safe and hope to see you all next autumn.
  12. Well 1st nite here , never set any kit up but the skies were fairly clear, plenty to be seen for the dedicated, planets were nice and visible not to mention a good few other offerings. If the rest of the week is as kind were doing well.

  14. Damn looks like we will have to turn up then pies better be good or I can sense riots 😁
  15. Thanks to all for the kind offers of spare weight, won't need it now messed up with New scope weight it's too heavy for my eq6, need to upgrade was looking at the eq8 r pro but I've been assured there crappie so might go for the ioptron cem70g instead, hope you can all still make it looking forward to seeing the old crew and new ones as well. There's a rumour going about Dr Derens booby prize is a nice macallen, πŸ‘Œ
