    Hi Rob,
       I've asked Paranal to do two candidates.

    C02-031
    T02-015.

    The seeing is OK, (about 0.8) but not excellent, so we will do these with the
    1" slit, which means that the spectra will start at 6300 Angstroms.

    I'll keep you informed on what we find.

    Cheers, Chris.
