    After weeks of cloudy skies Friday finally saw perfectly clear skies here and 
    I started off with Sar-Lupe 2 (2007-030A) passing Beta Peg at 21:15:22 UTC, 
    6-JUL-07 low in the East at about mag 6. I had planned to photograph the next 
    pass and also to observe other sats but when you hear a double bang in your 
    neighbor's apartment, see smoke filling the house and a friendly fireman 
    knocks on your door, puts a gas mask over your head to lead you outside there 
    is little point in arguing that you rather stay put to continue sat obs! But 
    I guess that's off-topic. (I'm back home again, spent most of the remaining 
    weekend cleaning - with partial success - and I'm ready again for sat obs. 
    But guess what - it just started to rain...)
