Well, everyone is getting ready for the eclipse of the moon tonight, currently I have clear skies and have just been out with the Opticron. Nice view of Saturn quite high in the sky now, Sirius is very bright to the south and Orion was high in the sky quite early.

A quick look around the side of the house and Venus was beaming back at me quite high and very bright indeed.

Fingers crossed for the clouds to stay away for later!

cheers
Mitch
