    Nice clear sky.
    
    One of my new neighbours had a birthday party, and when some of those attending 
    went for a smoke on the courtyard, they noted me observing. This led to a chat 
    about what I was doing, and next to 6 very excited party-goers observing a nice 
    and bright pass of IGS 1B (03-009B) with me. Luckily, it was bright and an easy 
    naked eye object so they all saw it and were quite impressed. Next, they offered 
    me drinks and snacks...never had that happen before during observing!  :-D
