PeteMorris Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Maybe you need to go out more in the dark! There are plenty of nights when the stars are visible. Much much much much more than a few nights in the summer and the odd winter night. Is this the voice of experience?...or just a general put-down?

JFKvsNixon Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Is this the voice of experience?...or just a general put-down? It's the voice of experience. I usually finish work after 8pm, and often look up at the stars in boyish amazement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the weather we've had this year...How many nights were 'ideal' do you reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeteMorris Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Unfortunately I haven't kept accurate records - I wasn't anticipating your question. Oh..Ok...no problem. It's just with you saying there are many, many, many, many, many nights. I thought you might have an idea of just how many...Even ball park figures! My original comment, was because I 'do' have experience of this and at one point even had my own 6" reflector telescope. Which I would have loved to make a lot more use of, had the elements been favourable, which sadly they weren't and all too often it was an expensive ornament sat doing nothing because it was either too light (streetlight pollution), too light because of the moon being in the night sky, too cloudy, raining, snow, or even just passing clouds are an irritation. Or...Just too flippin' cold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
