"What could possibly go wrong" is now my official Astrofest cocktail.

That's it for now.
I seem to have misplaced a couple of sd cards. I have some fab shots of Houghy's port being demolished.
Everyone said "thank you" very much and you were toasted many times Dave.

Ok so who won the erwin trophys this year? What new gear was on the field and why the cone of silence in the rotunda?

Also who took my position on the field?

Yours and Al,s site was left vacant in your honour.
The Pleasure Dome was built as a camp kitchen as no one is allowed to use the one in the dining room.
They have a coffee machine in the dining hall now.
Renato won the "under 400mm".

I had an awesome time!

Thank you all for your hospitality. I was made to feel very welcome (even though I came from over the border), and met some extraordinary people with a fantastic enthusiasm for all things astro & for life I will always treasure this visit and hope to return. I certainly recommend to everyone who hasn't been to Astrofest to get to one!

I hope my presentations have inspired. I enjoyed the experience & hope I did not rabbit on too much

Alex.

strangely, all my photos seemed to start becoming ever so slightly out of focus as the night went on. I had to delete a few.

And we finally got to the "wearing of the tiny origami hat" stage of the evening.
We'd all like to thank Houghy so much for our head aches the next morning. Cheers buddy.
