Observation Night at the Central Coast - Pony Club Aug 2nd

[Rick Petrie]

With the new moon on 1st August, it is getting close again for another night of laughter, frivolity and also maybe some good viewing.
Are all starters happy for Saturday 2nd August?
If it is anything like last month it will be exceptional. weather permitting of course.
So pull on the woollies and freezer suits and be there.

2nd Aug sounds good to me - i'll be in melbourne on wed/thu/fri nights the week after so Kate wouldn't like me going out on that sat night

[gmbfilter (Geoff)]

Terrific I'll bring my all my warmies + Wild Turkey++

[Inmykombi (Geoff)]

2nd sounds good.
I'll be there and the Coffee will be there too.

I just hope for conditions like last time........that I missed out on.

[Deeno]

Seems like an age since the last one

I better stay close in case you have trouble plucking those feathers......

[gmbfilter (Geoff)]

Plucking won't be a problem.....and we probably wont need an esky for the ice

I'm looking forward to give my LB16/Skyscout good test.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

i'm actually looking for A/ANY reason to go up to the QLD astrofest for the weekend (but i need a driver/assistant - seeing as how i technically only have one wing)

i was looking "UP" last nite and thinking we should've been up there last nite

geoff

[iceman (Mike)]

Weather forecast is looking good!

[gmbfilter (Geoff)]

Whose set for Saturday? You going GTB? who who will let us in?

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

"who who" ever gets there first and picks up the key

i will be scopeless - can't lift anything heavier than a can of beer at the moment - and can't lift it any higher than my mouth - so the doctor say's

aren't i lucky

i am predicting - no rain - no clouds - cold - maybe a little wind (to keep the dew away)

be there or be square - so they say

geoff

[gmbfilter (Geoff)]

Just bring your comfy chair and enjoy the night...might be cold, -4 here last night froze the dew to my finder!

[gb_astro]

I hope to be there.
Have my first deep sky filters to try out.

Greg.

[wavelandscott (Scott)]

It is unlikely that I will get a pass from the warden to attend...

Hope you get clear skies!!!

[iceman (Mike)]

I'm still planning to be there at this stage. Was supopsed to be clear today - what happened?

Hope tomorrow night improves. The jetstream is horrendous atm.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

i think it is about time we talked to this warden of yours Scott

geoff

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

mention to her that if you miss more than 4 meetings that you will have to pay your (substantial) membership fee again

geoff

[Rick Petrie]

Don't worry too much about that owl Scott-he's pretty armless I hear at the moment and he's travelling on A wing and a prayer about Saturday night's weather. Only trouble is I think he's right about the weather being good on Saturday. Shame you can't make it. You'll just have to notch up more brownie points during the lead-up. See ya next one maybe. Cheers

[gmbfilter (Geoff)]

Who who hoo hoo cares about the weather, it'll be OK later on in the night.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

NEED I SAY IT ?
