1st Attempt

[JohnC]

Well, we could not go to SSP due to Dawn's ongoing medical treatment. But its a bank holiday with a not too bad forecast so we are off into the hills. We have a site booked for three nights, no lights within miles and lovely and quiet.

Dawn is going to try her first imaging session.

Will post results Tuesday.

Good luck mate,hope you have clear skies and a great time

[Doc]

Good luck Dawn. Hope it all goes well John.

Btw John have you bought that monster dob yet?

Hi Mick

Dob will have to wait a little while. Dawn has insisted that the new motorhome is more important at this time!! I cannot in all honesty disagree:). I think it will be more practical to get the 18" as we will be able to carry all the gear more easily.

As soon as the motorhome is sorted we will put the house up for rent and order the Obs 18.

We are excited about this weekend and pray for at least one clear night. Fingers crossed. We are now on three day weeks and preparing for the life style change next year. It was a shame we could not make SSP but will definetly be there next year.

[Doc]

Fingers crossed for you John and hopefully will see you next year.

[JohnC]

Well as to be expected they have changed the forecast!!

Still wagons roll at 14.00 and we will see what happens.

Will post report Monday evening.
