Looks like there are some nice images starting to come through from tha camp. I'm glad you all got something in between the windy bits.

Might get some clear patches here at home this weekend after the snow and rain tonight. Trouble is the light pollution. Roll on next year at Galloway for you lads.... and lasses of course! I won't be there but will endeavour for something at Kielder. Keep the images coming.

Mike and I will be down at Billingham on Sunday to attend John Nichol's course on mirror making. We will see Damian there giving his talk. That should be fun, The course I mean!

Not sure how Damian will handle us hecklers at the back...............

We might heckle but we have some little gifts for Damian to help with the optics   .

Lets hope the snow which is falling as i type does not hold us up, i mean any more than two snowflakes and the whole place  grinds to a halt

See you Sunday.

Had an enjoyable day at the telescope making seminar with John Nichol.

At the end of the day I was presented with an emergency mirror making kit by two jokers that attended.

Thanks guys and the instructions are very thorough although the bottle is a bit on the wee side for the amount of mistakes I've made!

Great stuff I will place it in the trophy cabinet

Damian

[Physopto]

Glad you enjoyed it all. Mike and I had a good day as well. We both thoroughly enjoyed John's talks and your bit at the end.

Derek

Glad you both had a good day, I'll get booked for Feb tomorrow

Hi Damian,

There is no need to polish off the whiskey bottles, we can achieve that ourselves quite easily........

Keep going.

Cheers
