Well finally a full night, gray and dark and clear, but with quite variable seeing. Humidity stayed just within limits.
Coolest science for the following programs:

2013-2-RSA_OTH_UKSC-004 (confirming new xray binaries in the magellanic clouds)
2013-2-RSA_OTH-018 (an apparently hostless supernova candidate)
2013-2-UC-001 (looking for pulsating stars in a globular cluster)
2013-2-RSA_DC_OTH-001 (supermassive black hole studied in an active galaxy)
2013-2-UNC_RSA_RU-001 (measuring the rotation of a low surface brightness galaxy)
2013-2-RSA_OTH-011 (light curve for an interacting binary star)
2013-2-RSA_OTH-005 (star formation in a galaxy merger remnant)
2013-2-IUCAA-001 (spectra of high-redshift quasar-galaxy pairs)
2013-2-GU-001 (internal structure of an active galaxy and its black hole)
