The weather will be the death of me!

Well, It's the last day of the bank holiday weekend.
It's been cloudy every night. Back to work tomorrow so there's no chance of
an all night imaging session and what's happened? The sky had cleared, the
wind has dropped, there's no moon. Oh My God, this is looking like it'll be
a perfect session. But I've got to get up in the morning!

So, what am I going to do? Well...... stay up all night anyway :-) I'm
off to pack the car and head of to my local dark (well, dull) site. To
setup the imaging gear. Hopefully, I'll be able to get something like the
Whirlpool tonight.

I fully sympathise with you Colin, after two long and late sessions
Saturday and Sunday, I was dead on my feet last night. God knows what
it would be like living somewhere that is clear most of the time!

Hope you had a good one.

Apologies for the double posting - just goes to show how tired I am!

Hi Ian
It would be relaxing. No 'pressure' to make the full use of any clear
night! You could schedule evening sessions at dark moon all year round.
I'm off to the Canary Islands!!

Regards
A very tired Paul after a moderate 02:00 finishing session last night and a
06:00 start this morning.

Yes, that pressure - and the guilt I feel if I don't go out!

Alright for you - I missed all three nights due to fatigue laying a
bloody patio!

Blimey, I'd almost forgotten that ;-) !

That was Sunday morning, just before the heavy stuff kicked in. Sun
night was fantastic but I didn't have the strength. Last night looked
pretty good too and ditto. I'm getting too old for all of this DIY
lark.
