There’ll be plenty of others but I avoid websites that have more adverts and pop-ups than eclipse information, and those that flood you with cookies “…to enhance your browsing experience…” – Yeah, right!

Surely personal observation outside should be expected for amateurs and public alike? (Weather-permitting and following safety procedures.)
I have found a local group called Ramsgate Stargazers who have found a more convenient location and are offering public participation.

Thanks for this….always good to have a backup plan. Going to have a party with the neighbours fingers crossed, but have to get the telescope on the garage roof first to gain sufficient visibility.
