2 more sleeps

I already have the scope all packed up ready to go

Is it Friday yet

danielsun · #**182** 10-03-2010, 04:30 PM

H, don't forget to bring yourself some munchies. We have the Saturday night feast but you will want to bring up some goodies for brekkie lunch and dinner for the other days.

Cheers Daniel.

Damn!!!! Damn damn damn!!!!! I knew this camp was coming up but have been so disorganised this year (and busy) it completely slipped my mind.

I'm so bummed out I won't be there

I was hoping to get autoguiding up and running this year too!

Have a great camp everyone and I hope the weather is kind to you

cheers

Add me to the list please Ken ...
1 camping spot Friday night
4 camping spots Saturday night
I've managed to convince the family to come, but they're going to be late, so we'll have to miss the feast :-(

Peter

Peter, booked you all in

Rob_K · #**194** 11-03-2010, 10:12 AM

Hey, I'm in if that's OK Ken! Last minute change of plans - I can make it Sat night only.

So I'll book a camping spot (= car

) and feast. Hope to arrive early Sat afternoon. Look forward to catching up with everyone!

Queues for viewing through the Tasco must be orderly, and behind the rope.

Great news you can make it Rob.

Boy, haven't things changed for me. A few years ago all I needed to pack was the dob, argonavis, stool, and batteries. Now it's all cameras laptops, extension cords, chargers, power supplies and enough cables to choke an elephant.
Forgeting one thing could be disasterous so my checklist is a mile long, even taken today off just to pack.
Can't wait to get there!

Cheers Daniel.

Dave47tuc (David) · #**198** 11-03-2010, 11:41 AM

Geez I will have a few x scopes I have sold there

and make it at least 3

Who wants to buy it

bird (Anthony Wesley) · #**199** 11-03-2010, 11:46 AM

All packed and ready to roll... leaving in an hour or so and probably going to stop at Seymour as usual tonight and then onto the camp just after lunch tomorrow... see you there!

Bird

Dave47tuc (David) · #**200** 11-03-2010, 12:41 PM

Safe trip Anthony and to everyone see you there.
