Not a problem putting all the gear in the car and having a ride up soupy and Paul, I just don't want you guys wasting those passes on clouds as they sound harder to get than all the messiers!

If tomorrow night is clear I'm gonna do sutton bank again or further east as I'm off Tuesday.

I'll get a good nights kip then.

The hours it was best between were 12 and 2 last night for full dark skies so tomorrow its going to be roughly 10 onwards i guess?

Prob best for me tomorrow now as well. Everyone here in bed so if it gets clear later I might just go out in the garden with no street lights and very little neighbours I don't do too bad for close LP but Huddersfield kills the northern horizon for me :embarassed:

Think it was about half 3 again Kieran not sure? I'll have to ask those deer next time I see them lol!

It's like the Nevada salt flats instead of salt fever for the speed its star fever for the galaxies.

I really enjoyed it last night, great to see people engaged in something they both enjoy and have a Passion for.

I see Arcturus outside think the scope is going out and I'm gonna bag the last messier in Virgo!
