After a lot of work, Dudley had his official "Grand Re-opening" on the 12th December which was attended by members of the WMA, the public who had helped fund the repairs and members of the team who helped make it all happen.
Unfortunately (as is mostly the case in England) the cloud prevented us from actually observing with the telescope, but the hard work that had been done to get to where we were was really appreciated by those in attendance. There was a lot of very kind feedback from the visitors, and the restoration means that Dudley should be in service for another 50 years!
