Big thank you to Mike and Houghy for putting on a fantastic camp.
Ron and myself had a blast and we would like to thank Paul for generously donating the Star Atlas Pro we won. Im using it as I type this. Although I didn't get to use my scope too much I really enjoyed the tour John B gave me on Planetary Nebula( about 40 in as many minutes) Mikes sausages are to die for and and I'm sure Erik is an expert at making them now also.
The RFS done themselves proud and kept the entire clan well fed each night.
I also got a new focuser and I can tell you it is 300% better than the one that came with the scope (anyone who has ever used it will know what I'm talking about)
It was great to catch up with the centel cost new moon mob again ( weather and fires have made my visits there few and far between) I also found out who was blasting the camp with a laser pointer on the last night... It was Mark Latham...he thought the red lights were cameras.
All in all we both had a grand time and can't wait until the next one.
Gazz/Ron
