Dunk, you're bringing a C8, aren't you? I've made myself a bronze piggyback bracket for my C8, which should fit yours. I'll stick it in my kit to bring up tonight if you like. It has a ball mount so the camera can be aimed in any direction.

Let me know.

I've also spoken with Rod to let him know to expect a few early birds. Good idea once you arrive at the Airfield to look for Rod in his office or house, to let him know you're there for the astro session. Otherwise he gets upset with people just rocking up. Once he knows you're a photon junkie, he'll be your best mate, , and won't stop talking, . A real nice fellow, like Steffen said, .
