Re: good times at equuleus
Having driven all the way to Perth, only to drive back around 7pm when the clouds rolled in, I shall now consider myself completely, indisputably and irrevocably abused! Nice report you bums! ;-)

Mike and I decided that we must abuse the rest of you with an observing report -- especially the ones who were planning to goto MikeW's last night but gave up because they didnt think it was clear. I

Re: fri night observing - Naglers

CMC's "cloud forcast for astronomical purposes" page has been corrupted. It caused the OAFs SKY events list to display the wrong CMC forecast image. Now it look like this image applies for 20:00

Re: fri night observing
I'm thinking I may have to miss out tonight at Equuleus. Considering how hard it was to get out of bed this morning I might fall asleep on the way there (never mind coming back). If anyone is going

Re: fri night observing
I was holding back until I felt more sure about the weather for FLO, as that meant bringing my scope as well. However, if the weather does look like it will hold, I might come over to Equuleus "sans

At Rob's request, I have created a poll so we can pick a restarant. At Jan's request, I have added a few west-end Indian restaraunts. But sorry, Jan, the only _good_ Thai places that I know of are
