Hi Sue
It's due to the countdown timer in the left column. Adobe wants you to install the latest version of the flash player.

I hope to be there this Saturday. I should be able to bring the Obsession 18", having shaken the cobwebs off it at Border Stargaze.

Cheers,
John B

OK Geoff, I promise, if I make it this Saturday I'll bring my scope.

It'll either be the LX200 12" Classic or my Tasco 40mm Classic.

Hi Andrew.
Even the 40 mm " Classic" would be enough to redeem yourself.
Although I dont realy expect you to bring the big one if your back is still crook.

Geoffro.

Conditions can change, and quickly.
Forecast is optimistic

They say you can view through the eye of a cyclone!
Your right though Deeno it could change quickly and I'm also still hopeful.
I guess we'll have to monitor during the day.

You guys sound more optimistic than I do while looking out my window this morning.

I will take Geoff's ( Mr. Owls ) words to heart though....

Fingers crossed.

I suppose we can still run a workshop on how to wash mirrors, if it's still raining tonight.

yep - run em through a bit of detergent and stick em outside to rinse off

i been watching the BOM pretty close and i must say i didn't expect the system to turn back on us

thought it would slip further down and out by now

but heh - there is still a slim chance i reckon

Just looked at the BOM and Mangrove Mtn has had 158mm(6") of rain in the last 36hrs.
It would definitely be gummies underfoot and we could organise a new sport. "Night Water Polo".
Not lookin' good so far.

Mate,

Picture from sunny Yarramalong

Rick that 150mm ends up here on front paddock, the road's under it

I'm now on the wrong side of Yarramalong (Wyong) River.

The stopper out of the Turkey...no rain's getting in.

We had better think carefully about setting a new date, don't want any more rain

An early opening ceremony of my Fathers Day Rum looks hard to beat tonight, and especially with a warm wife beside me

It aint looking good folks.

I will stay at home tonight unless there is a miracle.
