Wow it got dark early

[robbie c]

Looking forward to getting out at a respectable time now the clocks have gone back:D only problem is there's thick cloud and rain

[Space Bat]

Yup - great times ahead if the clouds and wind stay away

Only downer is no more after work rc flying so weekends only now - Why oh why do I have hobbies that rely on good weather

[Si W]

Yes, the good time's are back:), gone is BST for 6 months, and no sitting in the garden till 10pm in June grinding my teeth awaiting the darkness to come, all 2 hours of it, if you can call it darkness at all

[nicnac]

just need some time off work that coincides with clear skies now

And to think some people still wonder why others enjoy collecting stamps...

That is the difficult bit.

Got 2 weeks that I've got to take before the end of the year, just don't know when to take them.

Thought about Christmas time... but then I'd have to help SWMBO do the shopping!

[Pete Presland]

certainly did and it was clear for at least 10mins

[earth titan]

Until next year, when double BST gets the go ahead

[cabby]

It's driving me nuts down here, I'm spending more time with the bins than the scope, there is only so many times the scope can come out and be put away in one night!!

God bless the clocks going back an hour. Here in Dublin (52N) it is now as black as black by 17:30pm. Gives loads of time to have dinner and get 2-3-4 hours observing in and still be in bed at a sane hour.
