Any Cairns people??

Have been contacted by a guy from Cairns wanting someone to give an Astronomy talk at Port Douglas, and to show some sights through the scope.
It is a paid job
Its a bit too far for us Townsvillians, though have asked a few .... prob 5 hrs to Port Douglas. Much easier for a Cairns local to do it.
Also, most of us Townsvillians are scardycats at giving talks, am sure Cairns people are much more confident and capable
They really need someone, so please have a think about it.
Hello Sarah

I wonder if your hello Sarah was at me! (maybe I'm just flattering myself thinking that it was) LOL

The saying "The blind leading the blind" would be appropriate for me

Yes, it was you Sarah .... I thought you may have gained a lot of knowledge, and felt OK to give a little talk, and show some sights through a scope!! Worth a try
I still havent any takers ... odds on the weather at that time will be wet anyway.
Do you know of anyone who could do it??
