July and August Meetings 2010

August :

Private member meeting at our "dark sky site" . Very warm tonight with a moderate to high population of mosquitoes. Some nice fire flies too. Good turn out Lovely dark sky though both large telescopes misted up after a few hours. Sagittarius very good. Saturn excellent. The new Meade is proving difficult to tame,

July :

Nick, George and myself stood outside the locked gates at Pedros and go eaten by our mozzie friends . 15 mins and enough. Visibility pretty poor anyway
