And a fine   S  Quad of Dobs. as I've seen in an age. I hope they get much light collection
done. It really does look a great Observing site. I bet the Banter's good Twae.

Aye I know Billy, but it's the Irish in me that can't be persuaded to call it whiskey without the "e" no matter how hard I try, even my iPad auto corrects it back to the proper spelling 

And anyway I think Damian might be in trouble as I think he has smuggled a drop of the Irish stuff up there amongst the heather!

Another clear night..Hurrah!
