I won't be up as I am at a 50th birthday bash... But clear skies if you get out.

Was wondering why we hadn't heard from you Sam...

WOW guys, it's unbelievable how quickly this thread moves on! For some reason my phone isn't giving me notifications when you guys post, so I end up thinking about you all after a few days! And there's like a million posts lol hope you guys are alright!

That's the forecast I got an hour ago Damian, didn't look great. I've managed to dig my webcam out of the loft, so just need some time now to mod it

This is clear outside

So even more confusion

XC weather has it the same 

Admittedly the BBC has it as clear although when you run the map through it seems that the clouds seem to drift right around dunford bridge

[astrotyke]

So not good at all then

Which one were you Eric I must've missed the introduction?

I was sat on the left side next to some big noisey fella selling boxes from a shopping bag!

Damian

I was at the back on the left,I saw the big fella with his shopping bag, but didn't buy anything in case they were a bit 'dodgy' lol

Oi! I've been out for a few hours this afternoon and the thread has moved on 2 pages!

Don't think it is going to be clear enough for me to make a trip down to Winscar as it takes about 40 minutes from my house.

I might just get the new scope out in the back yard if it is going to be partly cloudy - I still need practice setting up to get my confidence built up a bit.

Yes Eric, the big fella with the shopping bag is a bit dodgy - avoid him if you want to keep some money in your pocket lol

Talking of Gain, I was hoping to meet up with him later for us to sort the finderscope and RDF out on the new scope, but I don't think it's going to be worth me loading all the car up and trailing out. It'll have to wait for a better night, but I'm itching to get viewing with it

I've got high level cloud here. It may shift but we shall see
