Thanks Bruce. Achieved with some cloud dodging. I was at the scope ready at 23:30 and remained until 00:45 when blanket cloud arrived. I just had to wait for gaps to appear. Many of the captures were 60s (2000 frame SER videos) or less which is ok with intermittent cloud. Still managed to capture 45Gb with a 1280x960 camera.

Thanks Minos. 85% tonight, which will make it more of a challenge.
