G'day all,

Some observations for Jun 08 UT, through mist:

S Aps      13:58   10.8
VY CMa     09:20    8.4
AG Car     11:46    7.1
Eta Car    11:45    5.5
IW Car     12:54    8.2
UW Cen     13:44   11.6? - glimpsed
V766 Cen   11:42    7.3
V854 Cen   11:58    7.4
BI Cru     13:29   11.0
BP Cru     13:30   11.0
RX Cru     13:36   11.0?
U Mon      08:50    6.9
AR Pav     14:10   10.9
R Sct      13:50    5.4
RY Sgr     13:51    6.2
V4334 Sgr  14:15   11.1 - Sakurai's object 1996
RR Tel     14:29   10.9? - mist thickening rapidly!
RS Tel     14:26   10.0
X TrA      11:44    6.4
IX Vel     12:11    9.2

Also observed V485 Cen continuously 12:14-12:48, hoping to spot the 59
minute orbital period.  Always <12.4 nothing seen.  Either this star has
very long eclipses, or it's futile to watch it visually with a 15cm!



cheers,
Fraser Farrell
