Central Coast Pony Club in February

Inmykombi (Geoff) · #1 09-02-2009, 10:02 PM

Just thought I'd suggest a date for the next New Moon Observing.

I cant Make the 28th Feb, so I am suggesting the 21st Feb.

Last visit it was nice to see some Stars, after some interesting weather up there in the past. Lets hope it'll be good again.

21st works better for me too.

Octane (Humayun) · #4 10-02-2009, 12:54 AM

I can't make it on the 21st. I'm photographing a wedding and it's also my sister's engagement party.

You guys have fun.

Regards,
Humayun

21st sounds fine to me. It will give me a chance to shake a few hands, and steal a bit of light from everyone's scopes ...

Suits me fine! I've got a karate tournament on the 1st March so probably wouldn't be able to go to the 28th.

Another wedding H! Well done!

Can't make the 21st.......bugger!!

Sorry guys, I can't make the 21st. To those who are going I hope you get good views of Comet Lulin & Ceres - looks like a good time of year to view both.

Wise wise words from the Owl.
Will definately be observing on the 28th for anyone who is interested, besides, the weather may not be favourable for the 21st

Cool bananas

I can't make the 21st ,but I would be keen to head out to the pony club on Friday 20th, if anyone else is interested.

If not, I will go to Buckety on the Friday because I need to get the scope out and make sure everything works fine on it and get myself tuned up, before our next group of US invaders

Cheers,
John B

The 21st or the 28th is ok for me.

Looking forward to seeing what the SDM can do.

The 28th sounds good to me. I will take my 18" Obsession out there. I can now do the family thing on the 20th/21st weekend and accumulate a lot of points.

Cheers,
John B

If anyone from Sydney is heading up to either the 21st / 28th session.

Id love to come and will happily pay for a full tank of petrol

PM me please if anyone is interested.

Unfortunately working the next 2 saturday nights (14th and 24th), haven't seen the roster for the 28th but if i am working could probably sense some type of ailment in the air!

Just out of interest (a little early planning), April 25th (Saturday) is the new moon, If its available that weekend I think I might book lostock for the friday/ friday night/ saturday/ saturday night and Sunday, Will be cheap if we only use the house which has hot showers and toilet (probably good for about 10-15 people otherwise you need the ammenities blocks also).

Have to supply own food, grog and camping gear/ bedding.

Anybody interested? drop me a line or call on 0411438858, will need to talk to Brian asap to ascertain the availability

Inmykombi (Geoff) · #17 18-02-2009, 07:34 PM

So who's in for the 21st ?

head count please folks and hopefully a keyholder will be going..

Geoffro.
