yea, if the weather suits, we'll be heading up as far north as we can, with a good horizon.
Looking at starrynight, going to the north coast will earn you a full 19 minutes extra over us staying put in Limerick, that's definitely worth it.

the only variable, and its a big one, is the weather.

but what a way to go. :)

Planning an event at work here as the entire event is visible from Sydney from 8.30am. Anything to knock off the job for a few hours and get paid for it !
