A note from the administrator.

I have had to close the forum to new members. Registration is shut. I'm sorry for it - but I can no longer vouch for who comes through the door.

You may also find that certain older topics are no longer where you left them. I have, with great reluctance, removed a small number of threads and posts from this forum. I did so at the written request of a firm of solicitors acting for the landowner, who hold that the material touched on matters they would prefer were not aired in public.

I have complied, because I am one man and they are not. I want it set down plainly, here, that I did so under protest, and that I do not accept the grounds. Nothing removed was untrue. Nothing removed was anyone's business to suppress.

But I will not delete this board. What is left here stays, and you may read it for as long as I can keep the lights on. I have locked the doors; I have not burned the house. I have kept copies of everything. I would ask, gently, that those of you who hold anything of your own do the same.

Ron. I keep a small observatory at the bottom of the garden and fight a losing war against light pollution. Meteors, the odd satellite, things people report in the night sky that turn out to be Venus nine times in ten. I log what I cannot name, which is rarer than you'd think but does happen. Pleased to join you.
Clear skies over the Vale. I log what I cannot name.

Another night owl. We should compare notes on what the small hours are like out here.
