I dont believe it, I am in Canberra, away from SE QLD skies, Crystal clear here not a cloud to be seen, seeing looks perfect and no equipment with me.... Help!!! Anyone in canberra got a scope??? I'm, off to Tidbinbilla tomorrow and then to look over the new work after the fires at Mt. Stromlo. Dont even have a pair of binoculars with me....what was I thinking? Mind you that moon is a problem, ahh well, naked eye viewing is still awesome.

How ya going Paul? Hows' work? I'm having a ball down here. Just wish I bought some equipment.

See ya, Dennis.

G'day Dennis. Why not pop out and see bird. He's in that area somewhere. His scope is big enough for two.

Weather is still lousy here.

G_day Dennis I told you to take a scope with you, obveasly you didn't listen.
Not much work being done on Stromlo, only the workshops, as Paul said FULL MOON,but the weather will be fine for the 25th this month at my place

Hi Ron,

No room in the caravan, too much moon now anyway. Your place sounds good but I doubt I'll be back by then, if I am I will be there for sure.

Maybe see ya then.
