Smile Holiday Time

Only two more days to go and I'm on holidays for a month

Kee and I are off to our holiday house down on the far south coast of NSW. which also happens to be right in a dark sky area as well. No imaging but heaps of good old visual work with the C8.


Cheers

Hey Ric

Bring down some good weather please, only clear nights are during Full Moon of late.

Let me know if you want to use the Observatory.

Cheers

I'm extremely envious, it's been decades since I had a month by the sea. Are you going to catch a few fish as well??

I'll see what I can do John , there have been a few good nights up here lately,

I am the worlds worst fisherman Phil, I have only caught 5 fish in my entire life and three of them I had to return because they were not legal

I certainly will Ron, It's a classic 70's model and still gives a great view. I have some better eye-pieces now to replace the originals as well. It will be interesting to compare the views.

Cheers
