IMPORTANT NOTICE, PLEASE READ. The covid pandemic has devastated the Preselli Astronomy Group, the meetings we did manage to hold since 2019 had such a poor turnout they did not even cover the cost of hiring the hall, it is obvious that we cannot carry on like this. It has been decided to try and restart the group from scratch, so we will be holding a meeting at Letterston Village Hall at 19.00 on Tuesday 5th April to assess the future of the group and elect a new committee, if there is not enough interest the group will be dissolved and its assets and equipment will be offered to other astronomy clubs. Please try to attend this meeting even if you do not attend meetings regularly, as the future of the group depends on it.

Hi Phil...... just seen your post..... WOW! posted almost a week ago and not one person has replied..!
Some thoughts for the moment:
1. Where the hell is everyone ?
2. I feel strongly that the group should not be dissolved. All assets and equipment must remain with the group.
3. Yes Covid has destroyed the monthly meetings, and we all are very weary of meeting up, especially where close contact with astronomical equipment is concerned.
4. Tea and biscuits obviously not offered at the moment, also lectures have their own Covid issues.
5. So maybe time to move most of the group's activities to an online platform.
6. Why so few posts on this forum... is everyone over on FaceBook ?
Anyway.... enough waffling for now from me..
Would love to discuss further on this forum, I'm not interested in FaceBook messaging, I think FaceBook is part of the reason why astro clubs are struggling!
Will keep a look out from now on for activity on this forum..
Clear Skies Phil.... hope you and family are well
Mark ..
