Please tell me it isn't just me with cloud

[RichieJarvis]

It was clear here in East Sussex till at least midnight - Mr Moon was very much in evidence though.

Tonights clouded out, but tomorrow looks like its gonna be cracking! Added to which, my filter wheel came back today - I can shoot colour again - yippee!

Cheers,

Richie

Was cloudy all day but it cleared for the occulation .... i am begining to worry....perhaps the red geezer with the horns and flamming trident i did the deal with over crimbo might have been the real deal....

You think you've got it bad Martin, I managed to slice the top of my right hand middle finger digging the foundations for my obsy just after christmas, all repairing nicely until the whole lot busts again friday night while moving things to get to the dob for a bit of observing session - the first clear night in at least a month and I spend it in A&E and then all saturday with the plastic surgeons, ever think t's just not meant to be.

Ah well weathers back to normal here as well... wall to wall cloud and only the slightest possibility of one clear night in the next 5 days...

It just shows how wrong it is to think this activity we engage in is benign. It can be as lethal as any other. Lets hope you recover quickly Steve. You never know until something like this happens, just how useful every part of our anatomy is.

For myself, I almost sliced my left arm off with an Angle Grinder whilst dismantling my old Dome superstructure. It had been welded together, so had to be cut. Too tough for a Hacksaw. Luckily, the grinder was slowing down having been switched off, so hitting my arm stopped it altogether. Ouch. :crybaby:

ouch ouch ouch ouch...

And there was me thinking astronomy was a 'safe' hobby... Think I may swap my interests to stamp collecting... (knowing my luck, I'd probably get knocked down by a postal van!!)

I'm in the north west (between Manchester and Liverpool), we've had some pretty clear skies over here... well, during the day and very early evening, so I get naked eye views of Venus and the Moon as I'm usually in work at that time...

Don't even get me started on the fog/mist of last week!!!!!
