Where on that map is the star party?... I'm guessing from this thread it's somewhere under that big cloud!!.. Don't you just hate it. So much organising for a cloudy weekend. Still enjoy the company guys! That the best thing about star parties anyway.. Catching up with old mates & making new ones.. Have a :drink: on me!
Cheers

From memory its about one quarter to one third the way to the SA border (about 100 km) in a west north west direction. Yes right under that cloud.

Then why is the cloud moving back in here? You didn't get it sent to the Snake Valley Post Office did you so Mike could bring them back for you?
The lottery ticket did it Dave, the weathers' anticipating what you'd buy with the winnings.
:rofl:

I'd gladly take it for 'em , just to ensure a good weekend for the inaugural get together (oh and I've volunteered to do a sky tour for a group of astrologers tonight and I'd much rather go to Ron's place :P )
