Time for a roll call / vote

7timer still says clear skies (although less than ideal)

I am happy to go with the consensus.

At this stage weather is looking OK so should be going.
Planning on arriving around 7:30ish.

Where did the day go?

Yikes, running a little behind schedule...
I think I'll be grabbing a quick bite somewhere along the way, haven't had time to prepare anything for a BBQ... /sigh

Looking like 7:30pm arrival (optimistically).

Cya there!

Rob

Have had a gastro bug over the past 24 hours - for the sake of germ containment, and for the the greater good, I will be the sacrificial lamb and stay at home.

Looks like it could be a ripper of a night. Enjoy!

Wrap Up

Sorry to hear you were not well Rod, hope you feel better today.
But as you said yes we enjoyed a Ripper of a night.

A small but good turn out.
Six of us (Inmykombi, Rick, Joe, Rob, and Allan{other}, and myself) enjoyed fine fare and spirits with an occasional DSO during the long descent of the moon.
After moon-set the skies yielded a plethora more detail, welcoming many old favourites with some new delights intermingled.

Thanks to all for your company.

Gates were locked at 2am.

With wishes for a Safe and Happy Christmas break to all our readers.
...'til next time.

Yes, hope your feeling better Rod and wishing all the family a Happy Christmas, and see you next year hopefully.
Big thanks to Al for your summary of the night mate, my feelings exactly.
Best wishes to all, it was a great night to finish off the year and look forward to all your company next year.
