COVID 19 poster IMPORTANT:

Member and visitors are asked not to attend club activities if they have tested positive for COVID 19 or are showing any of its symptoms.

The next observing session will be scheduled soon, depending on the weather (and the midges!).

Anyone out there with a telescope still in its box or gathering dust in the attic ?

Get in touch - we can organize a workshop around getting you set up; you'll be enjoying the night sky through your own telescope in no time !
