Shame you'd not said earliest crash I'd have come up.

There seem's to be some clouds appearing from the south?

I've not set up but if it looks good at 10 I may have an hour.

Cheers for scoping it out Crash. Looking forward to a clear night this weekend perhaps, as just finished work and looked outside, what a disappointment! Good luck in Cyprus Damian.

Kept bobbing out to the garden last night and it look like crash said a lot of high wispy clouds :( hope the weekend clears up, especially Sunday as I have to stay up anyways :)

Have a good time in Cyprus Damien.

Not a happy bunny just been out into garden to set up and my scope not playing ball.

Can't understand it seem to be miles off on my star alignment can't figure out what's wrong, if I've knocked something packing up on Saturday night or something all date and time was correct and mount was level hope its not something serious :(

Was drinking Keo Sammy, its cloudy here but warm.

Had a bit of an accident last night on the way home tripped over and now I'm sporting a bad cut on the bridge of my nose and loads of bad grazers so not a good start to the holiday! Hey ho that's life, what a picture I look at present!

Hope the clouds clear for you

It's been clear here tonight and I found my eye's drifting sky wards picking out the pointer stars and locating a few constellations.

The beer goggles were definitely on Russ but my feet had lost communication with my head so weren't functioning at all! Silly me

I'll try to have a look at those images Kieran

I hope the weather picks up for you guys
