Well, definite now, can't make it this time. Was hoping against hope that I'd have a window but it shut!! Missed BSG, now missing SV, gotta get better organised for next year.

Have a great time all, want to see lots of pics & reports!

Cheers -

I reckon you should just get yourself sponsored by Tasco and become a full time professional amateur astronomer. And get paid by them to go to any star party and promote their telescopes. The Tasco version of the Three Rivers Foundation.

(acknowledging of course that the 3RF does not sell telescopes but promotes astronomy and doesn't pay people to go to star parties)

The Tasco's just a front so I can go to star parties & look through decent telescopes!
