OK! Good! Well...

Rain or Shine

If Sunny I'll be there early for some Solar Observation

Yeah well no wonder the 7-Timer weather site went haywire, I wonder who's been fiddling with it's output? !!

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

not looking good RB - is it.

the stuff from the west is getting here a bit earlier than i thought it would

but you never know - there might be a couple of pockets opened up here on the coast (and as far as the mountain) i hope

[Amunous (Michael)]

whats the best time to arrive?
ide rather set up in the light than in the dark.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

i am starting to pack the car pony clubbers

i am that confident we will get to see something at some stage

geoff

[Rick Petrie]

I be going but can't get away from here 'til about 5 ish.
See ya all.

[Allan_L (Allan)]

I am packed and leaving now.
Expect to be there by 4.

Will stop to buy some hot party snacks on the way.

Could be purely social evening, but I am sure it will be fun with fine company.

[RB (Andrew)]

Hoping to be there a little later on.

(someone has to keep an eye on you guys......)

[gmbfilter (Geoff)]

Woooooh hooo
Tim tams and wild turkey loaded
Even remembered that big round thingie that the antechinus like looking at themselves in

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

WELL ! where were you RB ?

we waited - and waited - and waited - and you didn't show !
Rick had some nice stoggies for you too

we did see stars
everything did get wet (no - no rain - just dew)

and we did decide it was time to give it a miss about 00-45
but as always - it was fun
we might try again next week perhaps

I'm sooo sorry guys.
After dinner I felt very tired (been working all day) and thought I'd have a quick rest.
Well I ended up falling asleep on the couch and by the time I woke up it was too late to come out to the PC.

Sorry I missed it, I was really looking forward to catching up with everyone.

Another nice night, but sky could have cooperated a bit better, but still managed to see some of the favourites when conditions allowed.
Good to catch up again Michael and Carly. That scope will be really crankin' on a good night.
Thanks to all for the shared munchies and drinks and the good company as usual and where were those tim tams.
Cheers till next one.

Don't suppose anyone (plus Keyholder) is interested in doing a Pony Club
mid week?
Weather seems to be improving from Wednesday.
Saturday is looking good but the moon will not set till about 11:30 pm.

Greg.
