I know this is early but how about sat 18th & or sat 25th july.
Both GB astro & Rodstar have bought Nag 31's & my SDM have given the weather Deamons there Karmic due , but enough is enough!!!  PLEASE weather Gods.
I'm gettin twitchy
Phil

I think we all need to appease the Weather Gods with a few (telescopic) sacrifices.

At least it was good to get up to the PC last weekend, set up the scope, do alignment, then wait for it to clear (which never happened)!
Talk about unlucky...
18 July No1 son birthday
25 July No2 son birthday. 
Hmmm!
Maybe I can talk them into celebrating out with their mates !!!

I don't have a chance..
18th I'll be up at Parkes, and the week before I'll have been up at Brisbane for work for 5 days.
So the weekend after (25th), I'll be instructed to stay home

I'll be there with clear & jetstream free skies,
everybody needs to be on best behavior this week for the weather Gods 
Masked birthday party you say Rod, sounds like an opportunity to do the old switcharoo & who knows who is behind the mask  ,catch up next time.
Looking forward to sat

I hope to be there on the 18th.
On the 25th might try to get to Wiruna and give the freezer suit a workout.
Greg.
