Just stuck in a days leave for the Friday so I can pack the car and cruise up in relaxed style.

Having been on long service leave I had not even looked to notice that the Monday is a public holiday. Will see how things go over the weekend and might be able to stay the Sunday night too.

I didn't realise it was 2 weeks away.

Looking forward to properly using my new setup.

Hi Guys
We are up to about 35 at this stage, still waiting on a few regulars to confirm if they are coming or not, we usually get a bit of a rush in the last week, so if you are coming please let me know.

I will do an update shortly!!

Cheers

Malcolm

Hi Folks

All the gear is packed - and am now working on an observing and AP list and trying to get a few early nights in in preparation. Three nights in a row at the scope is something that I'm really looking forward to. I can leave work at lunchtime, so will be able to drive up and have a leisurely time setting up on the Friday. And looking forward to catching up with everyone that I met at last year's camps.

Paul

PS I have avoided purchasing any new gear and am hoping others do the same!

Would it be an issue if I was to make a last minute decision? I do want to go but work for me can be a bit difficult to work around at times as I don't always know my schedule until a few days before :/

No issue at all. I am doing the cabin allocation tonight (unless the sky miraculously clears) so will know the cabin situation then. If camping it is not an issue.
