have to agree guy's
what a great "meet", and better than average sky for a change
the milky way was awesome early on in the evening
a very pronounced "emu" to be seen - looking like it was ready to peck the head of someone in Sydney - or further south
we officially renamed a few spots on the field last nite - we now have "18 Alley" and just off to the side of that we have the "Meade mezzanine"
we do still have "Nite Fright" corner (where Greg and Al like to set up)
we now have evidence of the reported happening's down there via the reaction of Deeno's guard dog last nite - lots of getting up from his warm bed in the car to growl at something down there in the corner
we finally made contact with the fellow (Dave) across the road and got the 'pony club airfield landing lights' turned off. What a difference that made.
my thanks to GMB for opening and closing last nite - love the new scope Geoff - a great addition to '18 alley'
thanks for the colimation and hedgehogs Rick - much appreciated
!!!! do you all know - that an 'Argo' works much better when ALL five pins of the "Alt Encoder" are connected to the ALL five holes on the lead ? - your not supposed to have one pin hanging out i found !!!!!!!
