Observing using the Isaac Newton Telescope

Our speaker Julian Onions is an astronomer working at the University of Nottingham. He looks with what we think the universe was like in the early days and then apply the laws of physics, and let it run in a very big computer, then look at what we've got and see if its like what we see. An observing trip to the Isaac Newton telescope. I got a chance to do
some observing with the 2.5 m Isaac Newton telescope, should be
straightforward? Just click and point? Not quite!
So what does it actually take to set up and use a professional telescope?
How do you plan and execute an observing run?
