Who's Done It This Time?

Baddad (Marty) · #1 23-10-2009, 02:22 PM

Hi All,

Some one has gone and flashed the plastic for some new toys.

Brisbane's forecast is:
Sunday storm;
Monday rain;
Tuesday and Wednesday showers.

We do need it but flashing the card that much is overkill.

'fess up whoever it is.

jjj was it you again?

Cheers Marty

How'd you know Marty?

I take full responsibility for any light cloud.
But it's Paul's purchase that's attracting the storms.

When you get right down to the nitty gritty of it though, taking it right back to the source. It's Gary Beals fault.
He's the one that sold the stuff to us.

DeanoNZL (Adrian) · #4 23-10-2009, 02:43 PM

Wow, that would make a change NZ sending clouds to Oz!

jjjnettie (Jeanette) · #5 23-10-2009, 02:45 PM

I don't mind Adrian, so long as we can wring some rain out them. (during the day)

What the? I checked this morning before coming to work and it was fine and clear til next Tuesday. Handed over the powermate I sold to Greg "gjelke" this morning, and now the clouds roll in. We joked about it at the time, but it's not funny now...

Fair dinkum, there has to be something to this phenomenon don't you think?

That’s alright, I won’t complain because of the Caravan and Camping shows that’s on at the RNA showgrounds this weekend for some reason they have two huge spot lights pointing right at our apartment.

Baddad (Marty) · #9 23-10-2009, 04:54 PM

Hi jjj & All,

I knew it, I knew it. Someone was responsible. Just how much will be interesting.

I've got a new swimming pool going in and don't want a lot of rain.

Cheers Marty

Sorry to hear you weekend has been ruined (well degraded at least). There really should be something you can do about that. Forget astronomy for the moment - what about quality of life and health? Perhaps a low-key approach to the organisers (hey mate could you point them somewhere else?) followed by a complaint to council. It wouldn't change what happens this weekend but perhaps, just perhaps things might be better in the future.

It's clear as ever outside right now but guess what.......

I have work at 6am tomorrow.

Of all the Saturdays to work, it HAS to be tomorrow

If it's not clouds and food poisoning, there'll always be something else

jjjnettie (Jeanette) · #13 23-10-2009, 08:27 PM

Grab your bino's Sab and have a quick tour before bedtime.
You'll sleep all the sweeter for it.

pgc hunter · #14 23-10-2009, 08:32 PM

I don't have binos, and my grab n go lacks a mount

Besides the only thing I want to grab when I have to rise at 4:45am is my jammies and the only place to go is the sack

Will gladly trade someone clear skies for a bit of rain until some storms brew up.
Cheers Kev.

You'll have to buy some more astro gear Kev.
If we get everyone on the forum to direct deposit 50cents into your account you'd get enough to buy at least 2 weeks of rain.

Kevnool (Kev) · #19 23-10-2009, 10:22 PM

Will a carton of XXXX do the job instead of buying astro gear JJJ.
Cheers Kev.

You know as well as I do that it doesn't work with beer.
