Hi Dave, all our DDAS meetings are open to non-members, we charge a room fee of £3 for non members. If you come I'll see you there, I'll be doing the raffle - 20p a ticket or £1 for a strip of five 🙂

You may have a full house as I'm tempted as well.

I must say what a brilliant meeting that was, Emma Chapman was excellent and I could have listened to her for hours. It was great to meet @Derbyshire Dave and  @Ibbo for the first time and to put faces to the names, it was great to see Rob @Bino-viewer again. Hopefully next time you meetup at one of the dark sites I'll be able to sort some travel out and join you.

Agreed too! Lovely to meet Dave and Mike (Magellan Boy). The talk was fantastic, probably the best Astro talk I’ve been to. Emma was full of life and full of knowledge, and presented the facts in a very accessible way.
