I didn't realise there as an out of body experience as well....

Back in Brissy ATM with some limited internet. As usual Dr Who had the Tardis cloaked somewhere on the site, stealing time away from us, the days were impossibly short, the nights clear but damn cold, even for one from the deep south.

To my surprise there was a concurrent Toilet & Ensuite Tent Club of Australia gathering, they even managed to fit all the nutters tents on the field....

Anthony's (bird) talk on Planatery imaging was excellent on the last Saturday.
8 days just weren't enough; next time I'm going 10 days, the whole hog, and better prepared. The Eq8's were mightily impressive, I even got to test the finger crush option on Dave's tripod....

Seeing H0ughy pack up was an experience, at first it was like he was rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic, finally out of the chaos emerged a blue clad monolith the top of which was well out of my reach. Next year I have to do a timelapse!!!

It was great to catch up with everyone, apologies for my bad hearing if you said something in the dark and got the wrong response...

A few happy snaps, I didn't take many.

1. Warm days, even the dobs were wilting...
2. I ponder therefore I am...
3. h0ugh under the h0ugh Mahal (Including caretaker and gatekeepers cottage)
4. Travelling Light, h0ugh Style......
5. Travelling Light, Phil style....
