Hi Pete. 

I grew up in Hornsea and regularly go back. Was there Saturday!

Live in Beverley now and been on this site since about April when I got my scope. Like you just been observing from my garden, took my scope to my brothers house in the countryside one night and it was amazing. Time permitting would like to observe from a dark site somewhere, I've heard the Beverley society meet up on Friday nights on Arras hill near market weighton.

Welcome to another Yorkshireman. I was born in Hull and lived in Beverley up until a couple of years back. Was married to a girl from Hornsea so used to spend a fair amount of time up there.

Clear skies !!!

If your wife is a twin and maiden name began with B, then I think I recognise her. Think she's friends with my sister in law.
