Despite a really dodgy weather forecast, Linda and I headed north to Kelling Heath to set up at the biannual astronomy star party. We arrived around 8.00am to overcast skies and a really gusty northerly wind: nevertheless, we 'stalled out', keeping things to the minimum so that - should it be necessary - we could clear away quickly.
In the event we managed to carry on until 2.30 or so, when rain showers could be seen approaching. A terrific day: lots of fun with the Liverpool Astronomical Society and other old friends and - as always - it was good to enjoy the antics of the young Red Squirrels in the captive breeding programme.
