  1. I have a reputation for booking events around the full moon. 🤨
  2. I've had it confirmed that the dates available are 2nd to 9th August.
  3. A few more details.... It's at: The west Midlands Show Ground, Berwick Road, Shrewsbury, Shropshire It's quite close to the town, but apparently in a dip and away from immediate street lights. I've enquired about the exact dates and will post those when I hear back.
  4. Hi All, I hope you are all keeping as well as can be during the difficult events of recent months. An opportunity has come my way to secure several pitches on a campsite in Shrewsbury in August. The site is open, has social distancing in place and is willing to accommodate campers (tent, caravan and campervan). 7 nights for £91 including electric hookups. May not be the best time or location for any serious astronomy but could just be a good opportunity to do some well overdue socialising (safely of course). Anyone interested? Let me know and I'll get things rolling. Mark...
  5. Hang it. I'm going to Six Penny Handly, Anyone want to join me?
  6. Any option for a back up site? I know it's short notice but worth a try. Woodside country Park (near ledbury) has the space and good skies. Worth a ring? 01531 670269
  7. 😥😥 Say it ain't so! I'm going to go somewhere anyway, I NEED A HOLIDAY!!!!!
  8. Booked! Looking forward to it, hopefully without the risk of being washed down the river this year.
  9. Halloween and bonfire night during a star party! Could add an extra dimension.

    From the album: Solar

    A much better Sun taken with a QHY5 on a PST (usual registax processing). Slightly aggresive processing but it looks a LOT better than my previous sun.
