MattGoo Posted April 19, 2014 Share Posted April 19, 2014 Damn, only just finished processing the stuff I captured from last night!Enjoyed the evening a lot, but still a bit tired today. If I go out tonight then it'll be outside the flat and not to Winscar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyExton Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 August - No specific meeting due to summer holidays - but we are looking at going to the 22nd - 24th August Star Party at the Dark Sky Discovery Site of Dalby Forest.Just an update for you Nick and everyone else at WADAS. Over 50% of the pitches for #DalbyStarfest14 have already been sold and bookings are arriving daily so I advise booking soon if you are intending on a group visit. Will be good to see a group from your newly formed society visiting probably the darkest sky in Yorkshire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
