2041 - that's advance notice for you. :)

Also, it's looking like extremely hot weather conditions. I think I'll be hiding in A/C.

[astroron]

Fixed :D
Ya must be a sook if you will give up a good nights observing because of a little warm weather, Chris:P
Cheers:thumbsup:

Heh, it's not worth setting up in the backyard at the moment as the xmas lights from the neighbours are beyond belief. Well, also I haven't seen much clear sky lately either and skippysky isn't looking so great over the next few days too.

And I can't manage a night away at the moment as I haven't sorted out the new laptop's power needs (about 3hrs on internal battery).

Usual First World Problems to deal with, so as I watch the clouds roll over, I'll hide in the A/C. :)

Chris, I am first world here at Cambroon, I do have power,don't rely on candles for light or rubbing sticks together to get fire to do my cooking. ;)
Most people who visit and run first world equipment, supplement their requirements by plugging into my external plugs.:)
Who knows what the weather will be like on Saturday,? I don't
Might drag you up here one day too woop woop. :P
Cheers:thumbsup:

lol, nice - all the creature comforts! :)

And maybe I will visit - I'm going to visit Peter's site soon as it's nearer to me (I'm in the SW of Brisbane), but I travel to the Sunshine Coast at times, so you're in striking distance.

Am looking at an upgrade of an eye piece around the 20 -26mm range. Would anyone coming tonight have a televue Nag or Pan in this range I could try??Nothing like trying before buying as I couldn't get an Ethos to focus so glad I didn't "waste" dollars!!

[Zubenel]

If peeps are concerned about the temperature just arrive around sun set as the moon doesn't go down until 20:58 :) It drops 10 degrees as soon as the sun disappears.:)

[lazjen]

Good luck to you - the clouds are starting to form again around Brisbane... :(

EDIT (20:45): And now it's clear - can't win. I guess I need a permanent setup...

Hi Ron,
Sorry I couldn't make Cambroon this time, we have been moving house. Would have been very unpopular at home to be MIA for the packing. Hope to see you next month. I have moved from where I had one street light 500 metres away to three close enough to spit on. Not happy.
John

Cheers:thumbsup:
