A Great Big Thankyou

[danielsun]

Glad you liked the surprise jjj and a job well done by Mr ponders and Houghy for organising it and putting it all together

Pats on the back to Houghy and Paul - true gents....
And to all of those who chipped in of course!

[xstream (John)]

Enjoy Jeanette!
I have tears in my eyes just looking at the expression on your face from Dave's images.
To me this is what IIS is all about, helping those when the chips are down or are in need of encouragement or just help in general and this is what sets us aside from all other forums.
Thanks Paul and Dave, you are true friends and gentleman.

Great photos Houghy, JJJ certainly looks a surprised and happy camper. I love seeing piccies like that.

A big well done to all of you that made it all happen, pour yourselves a big beer for that one.

Cheers

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Another thank you is in order.
I received a PM from Greg Bryant today, letting me know that a years subscription to Sky and Telescope in the mail.
Thanks very very much Greg.

Wow jjj, hats of Greg.

Well done to Paul and Houghy for getting this little venture organised.

And its great to see you getting over one of the great hurdles that life has a nasty habit of throwing in our way Jeanette. I'm just pleased that I could be a very small part of this and make your day just that little bit better.

Houghies pictures just say it all.

It's a beaut looking laptop Jeanette - Randall and I got a chance to see it at Astrofest in advance of your arrival as Paul was transferring some wonderful (and legal!) software to it. You're a great gal and it was a pleasure to be a tiny part of this. Again hats of to Paul and h0ughy for getting the ball rolling and organising this all for you.

I hope you have a great time with it, and I'm sure you have those pesky G-Star drivers loaded by now. Looking forward to seeing you in full action with it next time we meet up.

PS: I saw the coffee cart at the Yowie Park on the way home - there looked to be a good crowd with both a bike club and a vintage car outing present.
Hope it made a killing!

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Yep, the bikers love their coffee.

[spacezebra (Petra)]

Congrats JJJ

Yes, totally agree - nothing stopping you now.

Cheers Petra

I am quite dismayed that I miised out on this "amazing Event" I suppose that what happens when you don't keep an eye on this oresome sight!!
I look forwards to see it at rons in action. Cheers Wes

[jjjnettie (Jeanette)]

Aww, Wes.
It was the positive thoughts from so many people here that sustained through this time. So don't feel that you missed out. You were there all the time.

[beren]

Wow fantastic, congrats Jeanette look forward to seeing your images and wish you the very best and well done to Paul, Houghy and Greg and to all who contributed or passed on thoughts

[Sausageman (Mike Boggan)]

Nice one Paul and Houghy,

I would have liked to have been there but I have been on an aircraft maintenance course.

Houghy's pics are priceless.

Stay well JJJ.

Mike.

Good to see you're enjoying your new toys JJJ and as Paul said we hope it helps lift your spirits. I'm annoyed (with myself) for missing the presentation, Paul told me, but I got sidetracked and missed it. Just as well h0ughy took some pix...

Phil I took pictures of just about anything, including some tasmainians. JJJ and I even had a picture quick draw - she won.. digital cameras at 20 paces

A bit of an understatement methinks - I would go so far as to say you actually appeared to have the Pentax K10D grafted onto the end of your arm…

Cheers
