[KerryAnn23]

i look like iv packed for a month, but its true, i definately want to be warm rather than frozen lol, gonna take ages to unpack from our lifts car, just hope it dont rain before i get the tent up!!! lol

[Jiggy 67]

cool! we can either celebrate or drown our sorrows!

are you taking your 130p? if so I wouldn't mind a peek through it as I was considering trying to get one for a school project but wondered what it would be like vs my 90mm frac and maybe a 6" newt.

Yes i am taking it, though having got my kit together today, my car is gonna be stuffed, I'll fit it in somehow and you're welcome to use it as much as you like

[MjrTom]

i look like iv packed for a month, but its true...

Yeah ditto.

I think I have bought too much munchies.

I am not taking it home so you all are going to have to help me eat them all

[KerryAnn23]

haha my other half will help, hes made me buy loads coz he eats like a horse but its all good, im living off twix and crisps lol, really cant wait now, just wanna get picked up now and go......... shame the other half is at work till 6am lol

[MaxLux]

I've been camping plenty of times before but not recently, I can't believe the amount of stuff I have got to load up tomorrow. My other half thinks I'm going for a month;)

Rugby Sunday has got to be a sound drubbing for our nearest European neighbour, come on the All Blacks!

[Spikey]

I've got everything dismantled and packed up ready to put in the car for tomorrow and it's as clear as a bell here........typical !

[MjrTom]

Funny you should say that its wall to wall cloud here and I'm only 40 miles (i guess) north of you

[NigelCampbell]

Up at 5:00am with my son. He's almost two years old. If you see a man slumped over a telescope, snoring later tonight please give me a nudge. Thanks.

[imarcs]

Home finally!!! I can unpack, do laundry then pack again. See you all in a few hours!!

[PaulB]

The Tardis is loaded UP and I'm ready for the off.

Can I just remind you all.

Please be patient during the booking IN. I know all off you will be.

But Angela and Richard are doing all this by themselves, and during busy time's, you might have to wait.

Oh and one final thing.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND

[northernnutter]

Well...the van is packed! just some last minute shopping and then we're off!!

Safe journey everyone!! See you all there!!:)

Vicky.

Clear skies now forecast on Sunday night according to the Met Office

[yeti monster]

I've pulled out of attending, work on the Land Rover for its MOT has scoffed up a lot of time since I returned home, now have to do more work on Mrs. Yetis c*r, so priority has shifted....

...maybe next time folks, hope you get some clear skies!

[MjrTom]

I've pulled out of attending...

Oh No!

Sorry to hear that you have to pull out

Just doing last minute packing.

Uploader is picking me up around 1pm so should be there some time after 2pm.

See you all soon!

(Pitch 19 in the overflow field. Come say hello if you like )

EDIT: Revs/Paul dont forget that 1.25" diagonal please

[Stu]

Real shame Yeti, would have been good to see you there.

On my way finally, car totally full so if I've forgotten anything I'll just have to buy it or go without.

Now sitting in the inevitable traffic jam on the M25, joy

See you all soon (ish! )

Last 2 hours have been excellent. Great deep sky views before the moon came up and loads of Orionids. Thanks to Shane for making me realise that I need to ditch my setup and get a 16" Dob instead. Oh, and a bigger car!
