+Derbyshire Dave Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 International Astronomy Show this Friday and Saturday.. at Stoneleigh Park.. https://www.ukastroshow.com/ I'm heading down on the Friday. The Saturday astrophotography lecture has been changed, so Friday now seems the best bet to me. Anyone going? Always nice to see a friendly face..

+Bino-viewer Posted November 12, 2019 Share Posted November 12, 2019 Would i miss an astro show Dave.......??? Of course not !! This will be my third this year !! I'm going down on the Friday too........not 100% sure how long i'll stay for as i may need to get back by mid afternoon. Probably get there fairly early. I need to sort out my tickets i guess : i'm planning on attending lecture number 2. Possibly just that one. The last two years have been pretty quiet, almost subdued at times actually. I could probably buy my talk tickets on the day : i'm sure they will be nowhere near full ? If you're only planning a visit with the same sort of time parameters as me, you'd be welcome to come down with me ; i'd be happy to drive. +Derbyshire Dave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what fitting it is though......? https://www.astrobuysell.com/uk/propview.php?view=155456 +Streetbob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smithysteve Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Well folks, I am going down on Saturday, travelling in the same car along with 4 other astro members from the Mansfield and Sutton in Ashfield Astro Club. I always look forward to this one. Will be pulling in a couple of lectures too. 👍 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Bino-viewer Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I'm a little concerned by the potential for flooding between here (Derby) and there....... Hopefully it will be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
