Hi Houghy
In a previous post, you asked about camping. Campers use the shared dormitory shower / toilet facilities. Most campers set up at the edge of the main observing paddock and you should be able to pick a prime spot if you arrive on Monday. The camp Managers, Ian and Susan, prepare burgers and chips (French Fries) around noon each day if you are not into cooking. The kitchen is available to prepare your food and meals all day long except for Saturday night when it is commandeered by Ian and Susan for the lavish Astro-Feast. You do not need any plates, cups, knife/fork/spoon as these are all available in the kitchen. However, you will need to bring cooking pots, fry pans, etc as these are not available. There is a constant hot water zip boiler.
For the hardy souls, there is canoeing in the (cold) Brisbane River. I believe permission is required to use the site's (old) orange tube C14 in the observatory, but this is normally given when you demonstrate competence of telescopes, i.e. know which end to look through!
Cheers
Dennis
