It seems that this message didn't come through probably due to the serverproblems at Blackadder Still had some obs waiting to be put in PPASformat. The last days gave clear nights. Tomorrow I go on holidays for 4 weeks. With my houseboat I plan to sail up the river Maas (Meuse) all the way to northern France to see the solar eclips on August 11th. Pray for unclouded skies! I hope to do a lot of obs in my holidays.
