No, still at home.
Renovations being done and i am the bunny at home.

In 2 weeks we head off.
Probably SA.
Flinders ranges, Lake Eyre, Wilperra Sound, what else is there ?
Any Botanic gardens we pass and any Opp Shops will be mandatory stops for Jo.

Might even go via Great Ocean Road again (love that road).

Care to join us?
Probably leaving after voting.

Or maybe we could meet up with you somewhere?

Yes and no. Hysterectomy, unfortunately. It is a routine procedure, but is a major operation requiring lengthy recuperation. She will not be too well for 4-6 weeks. I am gearing up for a very busy time managing the family.

The surgery actually took place today, the surgeon was very happy with how things went, Nina was pretty uncomfortable tonight, but heavily sedated.

Rick - thanks for your thoughts, too.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

thats good news Rod
hope Nina progresses well and the kids are not too much trouble

[Arthur Alchin (Arthur Alchin)]

a couple of quick questions: Is it cold enought yet for the freezer suits? ( maybe i sould put it in the car just in case).

Secondly without the clubhouse how are we off for power? Do i need to bring the generator up for the evening?

Are the cost of renovations inversely proportional to cost of new scope,eh Al???? (first law of accountancy)

I don't remember studying that law at Uni.

More like the law of survival..."Store up for thyself brownie points whensoever thou canst, For thou art likely to need them one day soon"
(like in about 6 to 12 weeks )

I imagine it will be a challenge to hide a 16 inch visitor (even if it is collapsible)

It'll be like the 'stork' arriving again with a new baby....(for Al)

Arthur 18 deg min predicted for the night.

There was no 240V last month.
I dont think anyone missed it.

Greg.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

not likely to be power available Arthur

you will have to rely on batteries or the generator i am afraid

and yes - probably not cold enough for the suits just yet

but i would certainly be packing them for Wiruna (SPSP)

Thanks Geoff, much appreciated.

[gb_astro]

Mr Owl, are you comming? Allan?
Otherwise I do not think we have a committed keyholder yet.

Greg.

[GTB_an_Owl (Geoff)]

i'll be there Greg if the weather plays fair

and i am keeping a very open mind despite the prediction

I am planning on coming too.
I will bring the little mount for you to assess.

Having second thoughts of being a DOBber.

Need convincing

[Arthur Alchin (Arthur Alchin)]

Each "action" has an equal and opposite "reaction"

Well Allan if the purchase of the new scope is the "action" I can hardly wait to see the equal and opposite "reaction" (if necessary i will supply the bandages,first aid kit, plaster of Paris and crutches etc).

[bahoogas (James)]

Arthur,

I think we work at the same place....
