in reply to what time you can go there - i would say 5 mins after I have arrived and picked my spot

Dave47tuc (David) · #**125** 05-03-2010, 07:04 PM

One week to go

normally camps start at 2pm onwards. But I know people have been there earlier. I hope to be there by lunch Friday, but my scope takes 2 min to set up

Hope fully the weather will be kind. But either way it will be just nice being there, even with Jen and her bro hanging around

I pray for one real great night of great seeing perfect transparency

not much to ask is it

Starkler (Geoff) · #**126** 05-03-2010, 07:05 PM

Only 1 week to go!

Time for lots of

Hopefully the weather stays

rather than

Bring your along your

and

if needed and dont forget your

weather gear. Jen might need her

So come along and say

to friends old and new, and im sure there will be

for anyone who wants it.

Had a look at the weather for Ballarat and it clears up on Thursday

Not that the weather predictions are ever right here in Australia

joeallen (Joe) · #**131** 05-03-2010, 08:34 PM

I'd love to come to the camp. Will only be able to make Friday avro, night and part of Saturday. Have 2 events to attend that weekend. I want to meet this Jen character, she sounds like fun gal.

joeallen (Joe) · #**132** 05-03-2010, 08:46 PM

I will also need a camping spot for Friday night only. Is there a fee for the camp? Sounds like a fun place to hold a star event.

erick (Eric) · #**133** 05-03-2010, 08:51 PM

OK, here's the offer. I'll have leftover stuff to refurbish your pushbuttons and it goes off - so happy to let you have what is left after I do my handset.

Edit - I should have mentioned - it takes 24 hour to set/dry so you do without your handset for a night!

gday Joe you will have such a great time on Friday night that you will find that you will cancel all other plans and stay for the whole weekend Sat night is the best, that seems to be when all the big scopes pop out from no where Great company and lots of toys to play with, where else would you rather be

Dave47tuc (David) · #**136** 06-03-2010, 05:35 PM

Very stormy in Vic today

But just a warning for those who have not been to this camp before.
It will get very cold at night even this time of year , it can get down to 1 or 2 c early morning.

lets hope for nice crisp clear nights.

joeallen (Joe) · #**137** 06-03-2010, 07:31 PM

Well Jen, I have never been to one of these star parties before. So I will see how the one night goes. I had previously made appointments for Saturday and Sunday. If all goes well, I will make better plans for November.

If he is on time, unlike last time

Man i have never ever seen anyone move that slow

Ummmmm except for the car mechanic i saw changing some windscreen wipers, it took him more than half an hour

desler · #**140** 06-03-2010, 08:48 PM

Relax and take it easy Martin,

Your going to need your rest, I would imagine your going to be giving lots of tours of your set-up and new toys. It's been a long time between drinks, so to speak and I'm itching to go!

Not a problem Ken! Just planning my weekend already. I just wanted to get in and beat Martin, to the best spot!!!!!!!
