Folks we have had 1 last minute glitch that must be sorted out before we can let the cat out of the bag!
I had hoped to have posted an announcements by now and I apologise for this delay, but details will be posted in the next day or so I promise, and it IS exciting news for not only Queenslanders but possibly others as well!
(looking at h0ughy and co ......
)
All I can say at this point is - what are you doing in 7 weeks time?

Come on Steve - put us out of our misery
Lets see 7 weeks time, I will be winging my way to the UK - maybe you are all coming with me - yes?
My guess is - remote telescope being set up, to allow access to QLDs night skies - without leaving the keyboard. Close?
Cheers Petra

This reminds me of an old joke:
How do you keep an idiot in suspense..?

Sorry Petra but it's nothing to do with remote access telescopes, and much as I like your creative answer Rod that's not it either.
As soon as this last critical factor is sorted I will spil my guts about it all ASAP ..... I am hoping tomorrow sometime ..... fingers crossed!

The deed is done, the word is out .......
Welcome to the Barambah Dark Sky Camp 2007
You can thank co-conspirators Paul and Jeanette and (Astro)Ron and Randall (aka Dr Morbius) and Rowena and Tony (Striker) for planning and organising this event, and I assure you that we are working VERY HARD to make this event a success. This has been in planning for a very long time now, and we have always planned for it to be not just a one-of event, but to become an ongoing annual, or even 6 monthly, event.
Read all about it folks!!

bugger, now I know what Paul meant. Well i cant go, looks as though I will be limited to only one Star party a year from now on - that will be Qld Astrofest at this stage. I am giving up on SPSP, and depending ISSAC (although I may still have some hope to negotiate this one)
