Many thanks for visiting us and delighted that you had such a great night with what sounded like perfect conditions. Hope to see you back soon.
We picked a bad night to go. It was raining and there were no breaks in the cloud cover. The organisers did their best to entertain us and we enjoyed listening to them and looking at telescopes.
Glad that you had an enjoyable night despite the poor conditions. We hope to see you back again and we will try and arrange better weather !
After many cloudy nights we were lucky to have totally clear skies. The staff are so enthusiastic and knowledgable. Make sure you wrap up well as it is very cold up there even in September.
Delighted that you managed a clear night and thank you for your praise of our team which I will gladly pass on to them. Best wishes
