huh? Which forecast are you looking at!?

To me, Friday looked like the best night.. unfortunately my wife has made plans with a friend so if Friday is clear, I won't be able to get away from home.

Let's hope Saturday is clear.. the weather is just so dodgy at the moment.

I am in for Friday night if the weather decides to do us a favour.

The forecast I heard was Friday will be clearing.. Saturday will be more storms....

Will anyone be there with the key so I can get the Coffee machine up and running.?

If so, I'll be there early to set up .....say about 6 .00 pm.

I can't make Friday as I'm off to Sydney to watch my beloved Jets play the much hated SydneyFC.
If Saturday is clear I will be there with bells on.

Well... I'm keen for Saturday night.
If there are storms, I feel confident it will clear (famous last words

)

Besides, I won't been marinating the chicken wings till tomorrow night.

Rodstar (Rod) · #87 06-12-2007, 09:18 PM

I am crossing my fingers for Saturday night. I can't do Friday night. Looking forward to those chicken wings, Deeno!

I would come depending on visibility

GTB_an_Owl (Geoff) · #90 07-12-2007, 11:29 AM

well i don't think i can make it to-nite

i was sort of hoping that everyone would turn up Sat nite whether it looked doubful or not, so we could have a Xmas get to gether anyway

but i guess if some of you want to go to-nite i can have the key left out for you to pick up

Geoff,

If there is even half a chance of it clearing, I will be there on Saturday night. I may not bother packing the Mary Rose if it is looking a bit threatening because, though she may be seaworthy, she struggles in the hail/heavy rain.

If I decide to go tonight I will call you Geoff....Thx....

I will also be there Saturday to enjoy the company and have the Christmas Party.
Oh, and I must catch one of those Hedgehogs if there are any running around....

iceman (Mike) · #93 07-12-2007, 12:20 PM

I'll be there tomorrow night if it looks like it's got a chance of clearing, though the predictions are for afternoon showers/thunderstorms again. It MAY clear after the storms go through.

I hate to think how long the grass will be after all this rain!

Inmykombi (Geoff) · #94 07-12-2007, 06:37 PM

Tonight isnt looking good at all. So its tomorrow night for me.

I will be there about 6 pm, and I will bring my trusted friend. ( the coffee machine ).

netwolf · #95 07-12-2007, 07:08 PM

At this stage our plan has been ditched for tomorrow. If it clears i will setup at home. I am hopping it will clear tonight.

GTB_an_Owl (Geoff) · #96 07-12-2007, 07:41 PM

well Folks

hail,rain or shine - i am heading up to the pony club saturday nite - no if's or but's

i intend to do some viewing if the weather permits - IF NOT!
I INTEND TO WISH YOU ALL A MERRY XMAS (in person)

SO - be there

i won't even give you my usual "trust me it will clear" speech - cause i know it will

and for those that haven't been there before - at least you will know how to get there next time

and you might even get to sample a "Hedgehog" (especially if the Jets win to-nite - eh Gazz!)

and then there will be the lure of "THE COFFEE MACHINE"

need i say anymore ?

geoff

Inmykombi (Geoff) · #97 07-12-2007, 08:11 PM

I will be grinding the coffee FFRREESSHH if anyones interested.

I'll be watching out for those Hedgehogs too, unless they find me first..
" wearing my gum boots " just in case....

See ya there Geoff.

iceman (Mike) · #98 07-12-2007, 09:47 PM

It's actually clear at home now! Might be a good sign for a similar pattern for tomorrow night.

Too tired to go out and set up though

Hoping it'll be clear for the ISS in the morning!

Inmykombi (Geoff) · #99 07-12-2007, 10:02 PM

Amazingly, its clear here too. You wouldnt think we had a thunderstorm here this arvo.
But I am also too tired to set up.

Rest for tomorrow night might be in order.

Deeno · #**100** 07-12-2007, 10:07 PM

Will be there with bells on.

If tonight is anything to go by, I'm sure there will be ample opportunity for some observing.
Hopefully be there before dark, depends on cricket.
