Ive been very quite of late..... so i thought i should let you all know that i'm still alive....
have currently been addicted to playing an online game called world of warcraft! Its very addictive!... though i am just about over it! :)
I have also gone back to uni doing some post grad study in management.
On top of that.... Simon and I bought our first home this week!! Woooo! :drink: :party:
He wants a cinema room, and i want an observatory... im sure we could come to a comprimise!!
Unfortunately i havent done much observing, due to clouds when i do want to go out, or the moon! has been a few bushfires around aswell... that and ive been slack! :confuse3:

Haahahahah maybe.....
he will want a 80cm LCD tv though.... though if i did build an observatory it will be computerised, with ADSL connection *grin*
possibly even so i can use the scope remotely, or setting up live 'webcam' action. Will have to wait and see. all these grand plans! ;)

Nice to here from you Rowena,
Get away from that online gaming it's too addictive.
I will try to catch up with you in the near future as I plan on doing a Gympie-Marybourough-Bundaberg-Gladstone-Rockhampton-Emerald-Biloela-Sprigsure work trip very soon.

I know what you mean Rowena - skies on the Sunny Coast have been very cloudy at night for AGES! At least I have my 57 gnome mage on Gilneas to help when skies are opaque :P

Toss a coin Rowena :) not that it will always turn out the right way but it sounds good ;) . My son is heavily involved with that game, has been for the last 12 months or so i think. Congrats on the house :thumbsup: and good viewing to you, when you get around to it.. :)

Congrats on your new home Rowena.
Maybe his home theatre can be an annexe off the observatory. Can you imagine sitting back in a comfy chair, scope remote in hand, watching all the action on the big screen. Luxury.

i was actually thinking the same thing myself. though i think i will need council approval to construct the dome, or get a premade on put on site.

Hey Ving, as I was reading about the comfy chair and remote in hand the same thought crossed my mind. :lol:
2 great minds (well one great (yours) and one mediocre(mine)) thinking alike :P
