Gary, your story about observing at the sports field reminds me of the first time that Mike Salway and I went observing together back in about January 2005. We had set up in the middle of the sportsfield at Mangrove Mountain and had observed for about an hour when someone went into the clubhouse and decided to turn ALL of the lights on. He was sorting out the supplies for the following day, I think. We were like startled rats!

After hoping for a short while that he would see us there and put the lights back off, I went over and asked him to get the lights off. He said something along the lines of, "I was wondering what you guys were up to, it all looked a bit suss". I am not sure if he thought we were terrorists with missile launchers, or what, but I thought it was pretty funny.
