    Notes:
    
    (1) A good night for a change - transparency quite good.
    
    (2) 96072A (USA 129) NOT seen so it may have moved. Guess we will have to
        hunt for it again - anyway wont be lost for long! ( hope its not famous
        last words :-)))
    
    (3) #07816 - only two very brief "glints" seen and used for positions.
    
    (4) #90026 - slowly brightened to about magnitude +4 for about 10 seconds
        before fading to about magnitude +7. Nice one to track.
    
    (5) I am ordering myself a Christmas present but it may not arrive in time
        for Christmas due to mail delivery /customs clearance problems that one
        has at this time of the year - a nice MINTRON 12V-EX CCD camera which
        should be a useful addition to my tracking setup. Ill report on its
        usefulness once I have it.
    
    Cheers
    Greg
