    Hope the sky clears a bit. We've had some amazing clear nights recently, but today it's really overcast - typical!

    Thanks for the heads up. I put a reminder in the diary. . . now if only I could remember where I put it

            Ooh, thanks for that, I think we could all do with a couple of extra wishes

            Now... let's just hope that the sky stays clear!
