don't fall for it you know what date it is

Funnily enough, last night (Saturday) I had originally seen local forecast say it would be clear at about 10pm, but as the day progressed with sunshine then showers, it got progressively later, 11pm then 1am. I'd wanted to test out my new 6x30 RACI finder on my Heritage 130P Flexitube (can't use the red dot finder due to street lights). 

 

So as it was still sunny then cloudy at teatime, I decided to try and test it on the Moon only between cloud banks at about 7pm, which cleared up totally, and ended up being out till 10pm, testing the RACI successfully on various other targets. So for once, it was a clear night, and it was still clear when I checked out the window at 1am!
