Cool Save some weather for me - be there in a month!

Hey folks,

After a long slog with work (and they're still squeezing long hours out of me), I'll be moving to Sydney in a month

Please please please save some good weather for me...it's been a long cold winter in the UK and the scope hasn't been used nearly enough!



Can anyone say excited?

Cheers,
Dunk

Hi Dunk

You'll be arriving in time for an Australian winter.

It wont be as bad a UK winter though.

I reckon you'll get plenty of scope time.

Cheers Ric, I hope you're right

A couple of times this winter I had to thaw the scope out before I could pack up, didn't want it slipping out my hands

Dunk, I can now understand the frustration. It has taken 2 weeks to see a single deep sky object. Arcturus is twinkling in the pre-dawn Geneva sky.
