? May new moon at Lostock

Hands up for May new moon @ lostock, I don't want to cram Allan if you are planning something for June though.

I am going to lostock tomorrow morning for 3 nights, back on sunday but won't be taking the scope though (will have some evening frivolity I guess: card games, Karaoke and Drinking etc)).

You can come up if you want: we have the bottom house (up to about a dozen of us from work) and there will be a bit of light though at the back of the house i am thinking.

Yeah, lets go....

I dont know when SPSP is but I havent decided to go there as yet.
I get more enjoyment out of the small groups away.

Either April or May would be great for Lostock I reckon....

Geoffro.

Central Coast Observing March 2010

OK Lostock is covered in a separate thread now.
So lets get this thread back in line with its Title.


At this stage, I certainly plan on travelling to the Pony Club on Saturday 13th March if the weather is reasonable.

I also have a Novocastrian who wants to suss out the site and compare the number of mosquitoes to those of the Shortland Wetlands.

Anyone else with intent at this stage?

I may not make it........

My dear wife will be coming home on Saturday after being away for 8 days on a Girlie holiday.

I would like to spend some time with her the day she gets back.

Anyway, she may have a few presents for me as well....

If I dont make it, I hope you all have a blast without me....

Not regardless!

But I am likely giving it a go tonight if it is an even chance of proving worthwhile.

Irrespective, next week is a possible too.
