I'll send a reminder a couple of days before via email to anyone who has registered interest and given me their email address.
I'll post a reminder on IIS in this thread for those who don't want to supply email addresses.

I was over at Bunnings watching you all through my Nikon binoculars. I saw Phil dropping his coffee, and Matt hitting his head on the ceiling beams. :)
Actually, took the family to Tidbinbilla, then to the National Gallery on the way home. Wonderful day!

The coffee is fine, the Cafe is run by the Southern Cross Club. Light meals are also tasty. Table can't be booked so its best to not be there right on midday as that gets very busy.
We can always set up for some solar viewing if we have to wait for a table...
and the displays are excellent.
Regards,
Matt
