                ------------- ACTIVITY LOG --------------
Observing Specialists: G.Saurage
Mostly clear night, good seeing.
No real problems. First half struggled a bit with getting a good focus
offset between the slitviewer and the spectrograph; and possible bad
guiding, but not repeatable on other parts of sky or during second half.
