Who is going to QLD Astrofest?

I'm interested to know how many of us will attending.

I'll be there from start to finish.
My youngest son Tom, will be attending the first 2 nights.

I booked in for the last 2 days and may be able to sneek in a day or 2 extra but considering that the last few Astrofests have resulted in broken bones/cars and other disasters just days before leaving, I'm expecting a large asteroid to crash through the roof any day now....

JJJ, We, my Dear Alice and i have just been delivered our IVECO TWIN DAILY 50C18D from Italy, it is just a monster, but it has to pull, and carry our new 5th Wheeler,

Well that is next, it is in Ballarat, but has to be converted to Australian standards.

Power, gas, and all that sort of stuff, we will have it here in 3 weeks .

Then we will annoy all you lot at your Star Parties, as we travel this wonderful land of ours :zzz2 :

Leon

I thought soft and cuddly was the description normally used, Phil. Rubbery I aint heard of.

Fri/Sat (depends on work commitments), home for Wednesday and then back until Sunday.
