A little resurrection before the threat falls off the bottom of the page.

Is it the "usual" deal on the Thursday, meet at the Twin servos at 0830-900hrs and travel on Channel 8?

This is so exciting i am beginning to count the sleeps (it's pointless counting the stars, it's to cloudy)

Anybody need a lift?

8.30-9.00 sounds good Arthur.

Usual Coffee and laughs before we head off up the road.

Cant wait .

Oh, I have a workmate and his lady friend coming for 1 or 2 nights also.

They are interested in the stars and he ( Steve ) has an 80mm set of binos.

Should be great.

Hi Guys,

I am Inmykombie's friend who's coming up for this event with my lady friend. Just thought i'd register and say gudday.

I don't see us staying up till 4am ... but I will be bring up a bottle of port to share ... hope that makes up for it.

Steve

Arthur Alchin (Arthur Alchin) · #49 09-04-2010, 05:45 AM

Welcome aboard, looking forward to meeting you both. Don't forget some warm clothes, it can get pretty cool in May when there is nothing between you and the rest of the universe.

Will be bringing some etoh in one form or another also (and also a small Webber BBQ if anyone wants to cook anything),

Always a very friendly and often humorous get together.

See you there.

Arthur

Good to see ya on here Steve.
Dont forget a few essentials like Sleeping bags, pillows and blanket or doona and maybe a beanie and gloves as well in case it gets cold.
Bring your 80mm Binos too, and you can use my tripod and adaptor to use for as long as you want ( for a glass of Port that is )

If you dont want to pack food, there is a grocery store at Gresford where ou / we can stock up on whatever we need.

We meet at the Northbound side of the Twin Service Stations just North of Wyong on the F3 about 9 am on the Thursday for a " cuppa" and then we all drive together.

Arthur Alchin (Arthur Alchin) · #52 18-04-2010, 02:55 PM

and you know Sasup, they are probably all very correct

sasup (Stacey) · #53 18-04-2010, 06:28 PM

OK I got the free pass so I'm wanting to come up friday avo and stay till sunday morn if its ok? Whats the go with food prep? Is there any shops or is it pack it if you want it? Thanks

Arthur Alchin (Arthur Alchin) · #54 18-04-2010, 10:13 PM

We normally take our own tucker and drinks. Saying that there is a caravan park 6 kms back on the road but their range of stuff is pretty basic (milk, bread, ice blocks etc). Dinner time seems to be a very social occasion.

We have fridges in the house as well as a reasonable well decked out kitchen with cook tops and microwave etc.

I usually take a small Webber BBQ that anybody can use. We are about 30 kms from the closest town (East Gresford) but occasionally someone needs to take a trip in for something or rather.

Also if you have a UHF CB we usually stay tuned to Ch 8, Apparently Gresford has a Ch 8 repeater but i don't think anybody has ever activated it.

Also be carefull on the road from gresford out to there as occasionally you may encounter cattle, tractors and trucks on the road and some may even move out of your way

Arthur Alchin (Arthur Alchin) · #55 19-04-2010, 05:54 AM

don't forget guys, anyone who plays a bit of music, bring your gear as it always fills in a bit of the daylight hours

sasup (Stacey) · #56 19-04-2010, 07:54 AM

Sounds great, Ill bring some good old grog to go with the bbq and Music.
