Mecannylad and my new fancy telescope have been impatiently waiting three weeks now for a clear night over the Peak District.
Even though I have frozen my b*****ks off (and been frightened shitless by low-flying owls ...aren't they big buggas?) I am chuffed to bits at having seen such a stunning moon with my own eyes last night.
For a seasoned insomniac this astronomy lark is becoming quite intoxicating.
