I have my imaging setup in my observatory that I am planning to run in tandem with another visual setup, but I do not have a mount for my C8.
Even if someone could lend me a mount with a vixen dovetail head (like the one that came with the NexStar), would be more than adequate if they are physically unable to attend.
If you are available or able to offer a mount for the night, please send me a PM.
Cheers

I rewrote your original request in the hope that it would appeal to the masses more:
Hi Canberra mates,
I have organised to have a few friends and family around this Friday night (29th March)for a booze-up from 7:45 - late.
I am wondering if any local member would be happy to attend this with their own mount/scope as well to assist? Bring your own lawn chair, I'll supply the snags and booze. There will be a few unattached sheilas here too

If you are available or able to offer a mount for the night, please send me a PM. The beer will start flowing from 7:45
Cheers
