Now there's a competition idea. Sorta like completing the Messier list. See how many official astronomy festivals you can complete in a year and still stay un-divorced.

I haven't told her about the astrocamp in January yet? She knew about the ballarat one and said I can go, on the proviso that I paint the house. As a consequence I haven't a hope in hell of getting there, she knows I am not up to painting the house!

Didn't I see a photo of you tossing about a weight like a roman athlete...big job though, it's not the painting that's hard it's the prep.... Might be easier to sell the house and buy a brick one...

The old guy over the road from me used to paint one wall on his house each year; it always looked good and he didn't spend a lot of time.
