Most people get there between 7 and 8:30pm.
I'll be there at around 8pm tomorrow, after the kids are in bed.

Other than for the potential for raging bushfires, the sky is looking promising for tonight?!

Freshening northwest winds before a strong, squally southerly change

Sorry to hear it vingy.
With any luck, the change won't come through until late, hopefully we'll get a few hours in before it clouds over.

Hi Guys,
I'm a bit uncertain about this bushfire activity tonight. My wife just heard the M3 is closed going north around Gosford.
I think I'll head up the mountains tonight instead. I'm sorry I'll miss meeting you guys but there will be other times.
Regards
Glenn D
