Hello, everyone.

If it is reasonably clear I will come along too.

By the way, last night (Wednesday) I did have a brilliant night observing from my back garden.
More on that later.

Thanks Mike, that would be great! The only thing that occurs to me is that I don't have a battery pack yet, having always used the scope connected to the mains, I forgot to check if I have a car adapter. Anyway I will bring it up either way, if I can find an inverter today I will buy it.

Hi Ben. I'll bring an inverter. I may also have a spare cigarette plug lead, which would be simpler.

I may be a bit later than planned folks, possibly 9:50.

Hello, friends.

I have just loaded up my scope in the car.
Once I have had my dinner, I will head out for the Sugarloaf Car Park.
I ought to be there at about 9 pm.
All my websites are promising clear skies for Friday night.
I am only starving for Saturn!
There is also something special happening at Jupiter.
More on that later.
Sunset occurs at 21.03 Local time.
