Central Coast Observing - Pony Club 28th June

Anyone heading up there this weekend?

I won't be there, but I thought I'd start the discussion.

Weather forecast is CLEAR!

Given the weather looks so promising this weekend, it may be worth thinking about. Murphy's Law will no doubt apply with inevitable torrential downpours the following weekend.

SWMBO is overseas ATM, so if I come up it will have to be with three little gremlins. So I will not bring the Mary Rose if I come.

I wouldn't mind meeting up this week, but I'll know for sure by Friday.

I'll keep an eye on this thread.

This weekend is no good for me and I'm not too sure about next weekend either. All depends on how early I'm reffing on Sunday morning.

Pony Club - 28th June

Hi all,
Can't make it this weekend. Helping my kids paint some new ceilings. Hoping to get 3 coats on in the one day. I can make the 5th though. Otherwise I'll just have to view from home until next month. The skies are looking great. If it's on this weekend, have a good night!

Cheers
Sue
