Fingers crossed as the weather does look promising

Looking forward to Saturday now that the rust has been dealt with (even the spider veins were starting to rust!), the mirrors cleaned and a successful test at Ricks place.

I can pick the key up again Geoff........ if I get up there before you....as long as you can take it back.

It saves one person doing both trips. And besides , it gets me away from those dogs when locking up.....

Coffee will be " on the table " again....

The roll call should also be for working out the number of Hedgehogs to catch as well....

So far so good for Saturday night - count me in. No beans for me though. What time would people be turning up?
By the way, did I miss out on the birthday cake last time or did it not appear at all?

Hey Rick, re the cake I remembered that there was a lot of talk of a cake and heaps of birthdays about in the post for 3rd of May night - but I didn't see any. Did I get there too late (8pm)? If you want I'll bring one along.
Re the scope - I'm still to get a power tank so I won't be able to take it yet, still bound to the back yard on AC supply unfortunately.

Ahhhhh - The mystery of the missing birthday cake!
Sounds like the other mystery of the hedgehogs!!!! You can bring a cake if you like. I think the minister for home affairs should seriously consider a power tank as you will realize the true potential of your scope up at the mountain. I think there is a power supply up the Pony Club but I'm not sure how many can tap into it on the night. Maybe Mr Ice or others could fill you in on that one.
Most will probably turn up about 5 ish.
Cheers

Plenty of 240v AC available, only need a extension cord long enough.
Feel free to bake a cake.......

Hi Bones,

I dont know what the Powertank has that my 12 volt power supply doesnt, but you can buy basic ones from Supercheap Auto at Gosford for less than $100.00.
The ones I bought have a 12 volt cig lighter socket on the side for powering my scope.

Maybe if ya get time, you could check them out.

See ya there.
