Luke Walton has made us sound just like an ordinary group of people having fun in the dark in the middle of nowhare

Have a listen and see what you think

Excellent!!

Recognise that voice Kev, and Gary. Did I hear Albert as well - and your mate with the pick-up truck (sorry, don't remember his name)?

Have to get About Anglia down to Kelling in Autumn!!

[Whippy]

That's pretty cool 8). Sometimes with reports you get a slightly condescending tone about it but not this one. Onwards and upwards!!

Thanks that heads up was great! I think that was Lynn who was talking as well there, Gary yes and Maybe Albert too? Not sure it will be finished at the end of the month as said on the broadcast mind. Great bit of publicity for the Obs and for the Star Camps too Well done all concerned pat on the back for once more marketing this great hobby of ours :wave:

Liked the Wow factor bit with showing the chap Saturn. He stopped in delivery. Wonder if he will buy a scope!

Yup Albert was on and the guy who had the pick-up was Lee.

That was a good listen - cheers!

Yeah - great moment. Just that pause and the "Wow!" might be enough to enthuse a few listeners!

Just to help people find it - http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/youandyours/ then go to "browse by week" in the bottom right - the item was called "observatory" on April 9. The BBC website gets more and more convoluted and confusing by the day IMHO..

Thanks chaps. In the end the page was still saved by firefox. I re-opened ("un-closed") about 10 tabs before I found it.

Cheers
