Hi Richie and welcome.
Yip, the weather got us again, thats all part of the hobbie in this country, use the free time to read up on stuff so when you get to be under a dark sky, you'll know the constellations and whats what.

I watched the Brian cox program and lads, I hate to say it, I almost fell asleep watching it. I'll watch the next one though, more out of a sense of morbid curiosity

hey frasnk,
you might want to split this thread into 2
