Bloomin' heck Mike,

You're a bit early with this one. Are the lack of clear nights doin' your heed in? Don't start giving me scare stories, like you did about Autumn 2016, that there are very few places left.

I will certainly put this in my 2017 diary, even though I haven't even got one yet:headbang:

Calvin,the Dob mob are more than welcome to drag themselves even further than up t`north. A long haul but well worth the effort.

I look forward to your bookings,if you check back events you will get a taste of what`s on offer.

Regards

Mike

Hi,

Is this the same Dob Mob that enhances the SGL star parties?

If so, those Dobs will be great in the dark clear skies that visit the Galloway SP, those little weak smudges from Hereford becomes proper DSOs........

I have told numerous people at SGL that the Galloway skies are unbelievable and that the atmosphere is great, there are whiskey tasting sessions on the cloud filled nights, shared meals and friendly folk make the trip from down south well worthwhile.

Have to mention that you also learn to understand the "Scottish" language.:icon_biggrin:

If you cannot wait till February 2017, try the November 2016 party.......!!!!!!!

Cheers

Adrian

Hi Mike,

just noticed the following story on the BBC website

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-south-scotland-36763277

Good to see the local distillery in Wigton will be starting production again in the Spring of 2017.

All good star parties need a good supply of whiskey.

Cheers

Adrian

Have you ever tasted Bladnoch ? I have, never again.
