Let’s hope we get clear sky’s

I have a night flight back from the USA on Friday night so if you are looking up I will give you a wave ?

[Paul73]

I’m just wondering about what gear to bring. So far I have. Telescope, deck chair, Pimms and sun block.

I don’t think you’ll need any of those with the possible exception of the Pimms

I’ll be there around lunchtime - between 12 and 1.00  

[gtis]

Me Kerry and Paul (wookie) are here

[mapstar]

Arrived at half 3 after everyone else. Old Nick and the rest in good spirits despite the poor weather outlook.

Had some clear skies this aft and Kerry did a bit of planet hunting.

Pod is cosy wish they had these up Galloway.

Good job Calvin didn't come it's 50p for the showers 

[kerrylewis]

Yes. We’ve seen our near neighbours at least: Sun, Venus and Mercury. The prospect of going further looks doubtful .

 

[Paul73]

I seem to be the only one in a tent........ The pods have even got beer fridges!!!

Thanks to Mapstar for the help with the tent and the beer.

Ha ha yeah glamping at it's best .

Didn't want to have to pack away a wet tent then dry it for the galloway trip.

On a more serious note I'm thinking of packing up today and heading to Galloway early if the weather looks good for tomorrow night and Monday. First quarter next weekend.

Paul 73 just turned up a 8-30

[gtis]

Had breakfast going out for a walk

will decide what to do later 

[Paul73]

I am officially turned soft. Kerry has decided to head for home. So i’ve inherited his pod. Double bed, duvet, heater, beer fridge. He even had candles by the bed!!! The world has gone mad!

Sausages nearly cooked. Snow stopping. I’ll be digging out the Solar gear in a minute???

Paul

 

[Stub Mandrel]

The sun's just come out here, about four or five miles away!

Would the proprietors object to someone popping over for an hour to say hello to fellow SGLRs later?
