Hi All,
Some of us in the Eastern Surburbs are considering a get together on Sunday evening 20th December on the school oval.
You are

to come along for our last get together for 2009.
The shortest night of the year or there-a-bouts but what the heck!
Merry

Christmas.

I'll be there with bells on!

telecasterguru (Frank) · #3 16-12-2009, 08:46 PM

I think this time I will be able to make it. Yeah.

Hickny just took delivery of an Odyssey I 13.1" dob! This old girl is about to have a family reunion with her big brother, my Odyssey II 17.5" at this Randwick bash.

Rivers of tears will be in order. Probably their first reunion in 30 years.

Should be quite a sight, as the Odyssey I has kept her original looks, while her big brother is heavily 'tatooed',

.

Oh, joy!!

What a happy time!!

Miracles DO happen.

: sunny:

Will be a bigger miracle if it's a cloud free night with all that firepower on offer

I must be the cause of the cloudy skies and

rain since it all occurred after taking delivery of the 13.1" Odyssey. I have it on good authority that it will clear

for Sunday so come and witness the family reunion

.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for tomorrow night. What time will people be arriving?

Frank

mental4astro (Alexander) · #9 19-12-2009, 11:29 PM

I imagine from 7:30pm.

Ok so who bought a new scope yesterday ?
Overcast for a few days...

GeoffW1 (Geoff) · #11 20-12-2009, 07:11 PM

Regret I can't attend tonight, but best of luck...it is looking dismal at the moment in my corner of Sydney.

Cheers

I'm to

blame wavytone I took delivery of the 13.1" scope through the week and haven't had a chance to use it yet. I'll be

sacking my source that predicted a clear night tonight.

I'm not going to bother tonight but as I'm keen to test out the new purchase I'll drop by the school at the first

opportunity. You are all welcome to join me. Keep

watching this thread.

mental4astro (Alexander) · #13 21-12-2009, 12:20 PM

We are back on for tonight, Monday

!! So far...

Though it is blowy right now at 12:15pm, if it stays clear Hickny & I will be at the girls' school.

Hope you can make it.

We just might make the family reunion after all!

hickny (Peter) · #14 21-12-2009, 07:17 PM

Judging by the sky at 7:15pm it

doesn't look like my scope will see light tonight.
