[MrB]

Ok who was it?
Who's been buying up BIG!!?

I see we have a whole week of rain heading our way :(

[Zaps]

I thought it never rained in Perth!

[marki]

Rain? It's crystal clear out here right now so you might want to setup and get to it.

Have had lovely weather for a while with exception for one night. I think still have tommorrow night before rain expected.:shrug:

[Glenhuon]

Lovely night up here in Gero too. Send some rain up here when it comes though, we badly need it. :)

Bill

[mswhin63]

I would love to send you rain, would also like to send you some light pollution as well. Don't need that here.:lol:

[MrB]

Here it comes.... from the BOM:
Severe Weather Warning issued for Thursday.
Road Weather Alert issued for tonight and tomorrow.

I'll fess up, it's my fault, bought myself a Canon DSLR.

[leinad]

Nice one MrB.
:sad:

[marki]

At last it looks like we might actually get some rain. Boy do we need it or it will be rations for everybody.

Mark

[MrB]

Actually got some decent rain on monday down my way(Rockingham), Hardly enough to fill the dams tho.
Got home from work and my backyard and my toilet were flooded... yes my toilet got flooded.... from the floor drain though, not the bowl!

[marki]

Not much more than a scotch mist up north though Simon. You must live in tornado ally.

Mark

[RB]

Congrats Simon, which model did you get?

[TrevorW]

Rain rain don't go away I hope you'll be here to stay for awhile

(well a least for a little while)

[MrB]

[marki]

Mark

i think i am bringing it on, just got everything for astro work, got a scope,cam, automation and just got my electric focuser today.

[mswhin63]

Seeing you are in Kelleberrin hopefully you won't get the rain. Looks like no observing for me for at least a week. (rain we need it)

[Glenhuon]

Couple of good heavy showers up here today and more to come. Got my timing right, finished fencing off the vegie patch yesterday (keeping marauding dog out) and did some planting :). Scope been all packed away since Tuesday.

Bill

[Shaun]

Hey Bill, i see we have the same problem i had to fence off an area 18mx4m to keep the muts out, i sware he is a vegetarian

[RB]

It's a great camera Simon, I still love using mine.
Well done.

:thumbsup:

[Glenhuon]

Yep, love my 300D, given me some great pics :)

Bill

[MrB]

Looks pretty darn good out there right now... who's out in it?
End of the night for me, work tomorrow :(

[leinad]

Was. testing collimation and browsing around...cooold'.
Tmorrow night hopefully be clear as well.
Definitely need to start making dew heaters.

[Glenhuon]

If it stays clear today be setting up this afternoon, checking the dew heaters, and dragging the freezer suit and boots out of storage ! A trifle too cool in the caravan this morning. Got the lappies and desktop networked during the rain days, so can monitor the scope from the warmth of the house now if required :)

Edit:
Cloud is back, little gap coming through, and then it gets thicker. :(
Back to the DVD shop.

Bill

[MrB]

It's a year on and the weather is back...
So who's fault is it this time? Who's been spending money?
I'm looking in your general direction Grahame....

[Vanda]

Certainly need the rain - its a pity we have to pay more for it!
Did a Photoshop intro course yesterday/today - my head is still spinning.

[marki]

Not me this time but we do need the rain for sure.

Mark

[TrevorW]

Simon it's great as I said last year

[mswhin63]

I would like to see the dams overflow this year or next to ensure we are doing well on the water front so bring on the rain. Would be nice if we could switch it off on call. :)
