Thumbs up Cambroon 10/04/10

The next Cambroon Astro Night will be held on the weekend of 9-11 April

Me too ... I'll need to service the old trailer though. It's looking a bit shabby after sitting out there in all that rain

Here's hoping Ron,

I thought that Cyclone might be heading west over the NT, but the latest forecast has it heading back into the Gulf. We seem to collect the very end of the cloud bands from these cyclones...

I'm not trying to be negative - but living in SEQ with an Astronomy habit is proving disappointing lately...

Not sure what my plans are the for the weekend, but I'll keep Cambroon in mind.

Keep in mind that this is still classed as the "Wet Season" I hope things will now start to dry up
In a couple of months we will be complaining that we need rain
Anyway we will have a good weekend at Cambroon next week

I've got a few days off after the weekend, so not adverse to shuffling earlier or later than Sat (Fri or Sun) if it helps dodge a cloud...
