Perhaps a bit of Trek tech will fix you up nicely.

Hi all,

I'll be watching the weather to see how Saturday night is panning out, I can't do tonight.

Geoff - hope the eye surgery goes well.

Looking forward to seeing everyone soon (perhaps some of you tomorrow!)

My take is that Saturday is a bust , best opportunity is Friday. Unfortunately I have to be up early Saturday morning and probably shouldn't come out tonight. I'd stay much later than I should.

Should we start calling you Locutus of Borg?

I hope it all goes perfectly smoothly for you, Geoff.

Clouds building in the west.
CFN indicates very poor conditions from 7pm.
Just touched base with Rick.
We both reluctantly are withdrawing.

Anyone going?
I hear there is a Blues festival on at Mangrove Mountain community hall tonight (6pm to 11pm).
Be watchful on Wisemans Ferry Road.
