SGL5 has started

[Mark at Beaufort]

Just to let you know that Mike P and Steve (Paxo) and his family have arrived at Lucksall this afternoon and both large tents are now erected. The site looks very green, clean and tidy.

Look forward to seeing everyone over the next few days.

Clear skies.

Setting out tomorrow morning. Looking forward to it. Might even get some observing in. (cloud and volcanic ash willing....)

Mrs Jarndyce's (Liz) first star party and since she's not a big fan of camping, she's obviously keen to come!

Keep the skies clear for us, Mark.

Best of luck to you all and i hope the weather holds.

I'm really sorry I won't be there. I can only hope it is a big and happy party for you all. Good skies will be a huge bonus, but even if not, you will still have a time to remember.

Good luck everybody. And lots of pics. please, so I can see what I missed.

Safe travelling everybody. I've got to work (sort of !) today so I'll be driving up tomorrow - hope to be there early afternoon.

See you there !

[Phil73805]

Hah! You can't tempt me away from my light polluted and distressingly moist back garden! I defy you with your promise of dark skies free of my beloved orange haze! I laugh in the face of your scintillating views of the night sky and pour ice cubes down the vest of your inspirational shared experience of this great hobby of ours!

...Jealousy is such an ugly emotion don't you think?

[George Jones]

Wish I could be there! Have a great time!
