Thanks Alan, I think it would be worth investing in one of these. Your too north and Dave down south means I cant rely on your readings, well thats my excuse!

noon tomorrow was going to be one, if we remember. I think if we just do noons as often as possible there will come a day when a few of us will have done it and then we can compare. to compare properly it would have to be a cloudless sky really
