nice but is it me or is there no mention of where this is? La Palma maybe?

Looks like La Palma from the big 'scope.

I'm afraid I chickened out of driving up there when I saw what the roads looked like on the map. Driving an under-powered hire car on the "wrong" side of the road gave me the jitters (The fact that I'd already banged it may have had an ... er... impact ...  on my decision).

Yes - its Roque de los Muchachos Observatory in La Palma.  Went up twice and the views are stunning

Hmm im hoping to be going in early eptember. Out of interest did you go up at night and if so was it cold up there late at night / early morning?
