Patience. As soon as the cold snap that's hit us is over it'll be well worth looking. More than an outside chance of seeing something now.

That's very handy indeed.

I hope they make some money out of something though!

I wonder if they will sell the images? If they were sold at a reasonable rate it would be very handy for us.

They are sold, but I'm sure we could come to a non commercial arrangement with them, Cab is going to be talking about the potential for collaboration with them this week.
