If its clear I am in. I can be in tomorrow night or any other bloody night as long as the conditions are good. I do not want to be the bad news bearer but the following weekend does not look that good for the entire eastern AU.
But I could be reading the weather wrong... hope I am.

I wouldn't mind going up tomorrow night either but I set up at home tonight for the first time in 3 weeks and its blowing a gale. Not a cloud in the sky but another night of frustration.
Tomorrow unfortunately looks just as bad.
I wish I could find some shelter from the wind.

So, who's going on Saturday night?

I'm going to be there with the G-11 and hopefully the ZSFD80.

Regards,
Humayun

Weather forecast seems to be improving but maybe not fast enough.
Probably be a late Saturday afternoon decision for me, but fingers crossed...

Greg.

I may make an appearance if I can get a free pass. Won't know until Saturday, though, to see what the weather is doing.

Will hold my decision off for a couple of hours... mind you went out to think about loading the ute splashing through the mud my gummies have broken and leak

Was good. Meant they didn't overflow

Is anyone going?

Good news though I will be going next week

I'm still up for tonight if it clears up.

It took me ages to dismantle my gear and put it in the car for the first time! The drive up through the rain was horrible, too! This weather better clear up and make it worth my petrol!

Humayun
