Take your time, and check your solder joints under the magi-lamp when finished, and again don't forget to clean off the dry rosin from the PCB with some Isopropyl Alcohol and a clean tooth brush or similar.
Mark, thank you for taking the time to produce a really excellent guide and summary which I'm sure will be an enormous help to anyone starting the PLUS board in particular, but also any WeatherDuino really. I have a good deal of electonics experience fortunately, having put together more PCBs than I care to remember over a number of decades now and I've found all the advice to be spot-on. Even so it's been a very helpful reminder of some things, for example the importance of anti-static precautions as I've become a bit complacent and probably not taken as much care as I should...

Congratulations on the completed board and I look forward to seeing it in action!
Allan.
