              | Heading South from Aberdeen, go past Portlethen and take the
                left off the A90 signed Newtonhill. Go straight ahead at the
                roundabout, down Newtonhill Road with a football pitch and play
                park on the right. At the foot of the road turn right at the
                "Bettridge Centre" Sign. Follow the road for 100
                metres and the Bettridge Centre is the large building nearest
                the sea/Coastal Park. Ample parking is available.
                  A map showing the location of Bettridge Centre/Newtonhill can be found by clicking
                here. 
                 We'll be in the upstairs meeting room if it's cloudy,
                outside around the back if it's clear. Bring your telescopes if
                you have them, but don't worry if you don't as there will be a
                few on hand.
