Now, come on erick, be honest; you'd been out paintballing hadn't you (I saw the state of the chairs and your flak jacket- the jacket was quite clean, you must be pretty good) and the comet was just an afterthought?
I would have done something similar (the 'photos) the other day but the weather got in the way. My son and his female friend popped down from Wentworth Falls to have a meal and then take myself and my wife up to Tableland Road in Wenty Falls to have a shufti. Alas the clouds rolled in.
I hadn't even bought anything astronomically oriented. Bah!
