Hey Niko, I would love one of those cases for the G11, but they are no where near big enough. I still use the box/foam that the mount came in 7 years ago. How's that with "making do"!!

Hey Niko , I just bought two of the craft right cases from Bunnings Watergardens yesterday. They have have a pallet load of them.
And hey guys, don't worry about the weather, how many times have they predicted cloud and rain and yet has sometimes turned out stunning!
Anyway even if the weather is bad the entertainment provided by Niko, Doug, Darren and Pete is priceless! 
Have a great time guys.
Cheers Daniel.

Ken and friends,
Unfortunately my wife and I will not be coming up to the camp. I know there will be fun to be had with all the crew, entertainment and feast etc but I just cant justify dragging the better half away to camp in wet weather. I'm trying to get her interested in my hobby and the last camp went a long way towards that thanks to the friendly nature of the event and the generous nature of everyone on the field, allowing us both to view through their amazing gear. With the potential of clouds and H2O threatening I have surrendered and will now doubt be dragged through shopping malls instead. (I try to support her hobby)
Ken I will be happy to pay a cancellation fee given the late notice knowing these events take some planning and up front costs for the feast etc. Let me know what would be appropriate.
I wish everyone all the very best on the weekend and will be praying for clear skies for you all.
Thanks and regards Heath

Pete - well done on the original box - my scope now has too many bits and pieces hanging off it to fit in it's case!
Daniel - well done - no cases at either Bunnungs Broadmeadows or Coburg - bugger, bugger, bugger
See you all in just over 24 hours!!!!!!!!!
