Hi Ron,

There's a really funny story behind this one but I will defer to David
Chandler to report it when he gets back to Albury. David & Petra
departed Coona this morning and are probably still driving.
It is a story so funny that none of us who were up at Coona are ever likely to
forget it - and I don't think David will ever let us forget it.

By the way Ron, Mai and I got to see 22P Kopff up at Coona with an 18" Obsession.
It is currently in Capricornus. It was quite large, round and very diffuse but
discernible. It could be visually challenging in smaller apertures or under less
ideal skies.

Somewhat brighter was Comet Garrard. A beautiful sight at the moment.

Best Regards

Gary
