If you both want to attend, I hope I have the support of the Committee and members of the SVAA when I say 'book in and pay a week later when you can afford it'

I reckon we can help you out in this way

Book in

Would love to see you there! We all love it when new campers come along, you will have a ball and learn so much.

Thankyou for your very generous offer Ken, as much as it would be great to meet all of you the timing is just not right at the moment.
But will definitely head over for the next one, after all its only 6 months away!

Oh no Matry!: I would be giving them a bit of a please hurry up! But if you don't get it in time I'm sure that you could keep yourself busy by modifying everyones camera.

Martin, I will bring my mount if you get tired of shoulder mounting your scope. And Jen, I have a 2.5X powermate if you want to try out also.
Bo
