Managed to dodge the clouds and had about three hours of "International SunDay" viewing this afternoon.

Decided to take things back to the Charlie Bates basics and not have an 'organised event' but an ad hoc set up in a park for 'sidewalk astronomy'. Got a great response from all and sundry and there was more than enough interest to keep us all busy.

Great day.
