On this final day of the year the weather cleared once again. Although 
cold to very cold, minus 10 degrees celsius with a strong easterly wind,
I could observe several satellites.
96- 71 B isn't flashing so promently anymore.
65- 65 C is still beautifull to follow, as are 94- 85 B, 78- 18 B and 
89- 16 A.

The observations of today brings my monthtotal to 250 and the yeartotal
to 1324. Don't let this discourage you, as I know not everybody has so
much time to spent to this hobby and/or the good weather.
