Pony Club July
Bit early but just starting a thread to gather interest for July.
New moon is on Monday 12th, so how is Saturday the 10th for everyone?
Now, for all those people who have been in the closet for a bit, dust off the scope find your warm gear and drag yourselves along.
The more the merrier so they say.  We don't want excuses now do we? 
Cheers Rickapoody

 .... some things are never forgotten
Hmmm!
9 hours ? and B#**# Cold !
No accommodation as I understand it.
Not definite.
Becoming less likely daily.
But could be co-ersed. 
Greg, I will have a spare bed, but it will be VERY close quarters

9 hrs is a bit too far for me for a weekend.
Maybe Lostock will do me.

Thanks for the offer Allan. I guess if it is cold enough....! 
This Sydney weather is definitely a bit of a reality check though.
Having my doubts on how much I want to suffer for my hobby.

It looks like a goer for me.
I plan to get there just before sunset again if someone has a key to get in.
Hope to see all the regulars there again, as well as some new people.
The LX "coffee grinder " will make a visit too, so we can have some familiar noises during the night.

Hey Geoff, whatever happened to that positive attitude of 'Don't worry mate, it'll clear'
I'm going to stick the neck out and say 'It'll definitely clear....maybe????'

Sorry Guys !
