Well that's it, if it isn't done now, it'll have to wait. I'm packed, and will be leaving at 7am tomorrow. The rest of the Committee and a few volunteers will also be up there tomorrow to get things set up for you guys arriving on Friday.
Looking forward to it all, and hope that the wind dies down a bit.
See ya there,

I'm planning to leave just before midday on Friday as it's my b'day and I have to do the right thing at home before leaving.

Camping Monday to Sunday, cant wait to meet everyone from here there. Ive got a lot to learn so feel free to give me advice and mention your IIS name. 364 days down and its time to start packing. Also im proud to anounce that last night I got ENGAGED to my girlfriend OF 14 months. Ive found a very special woman, one that understands my passion and enthusiasm for astronomy. It was only fair to buy a diamond for her after buying two black diamonds, a Series5000 ED 102APO and HEQ5PRO, DSI 1 and 2, new laptop, tent, table, sleeping bags, mattresses, usb cables, filters, IBM laptop, numerous dew heater bands and controllers and all other ancilliary items we so desperetaly need to survive in the field and to quench our thirst for exploration.
See you all there!!!

I guess the other diamond was delivered on your knee Nick
Never take a partner for granted that understands your other night time passion and how much you spend on it (even if she only knows the half of it)
All the best to both of you
