Well I was hopeful tonight that the clouds would part and I’d finally be able to try out my scope in the new garden. I have to say that I did see some stars very briefly at around 10 pm before it got properly dark but not for long enough to polar align my scope, let alone do any useful imaging. Now clearoutside.com has downgraded their forecast to basically cloudy all night instead of clearing at around midnight.

So everything back in the house until the next clear night (sometime next year it feels like :-s )
