Terry RichardsonModeratorHi Sasha,
Sorry about the weather tonight.
You would be very welcome to come on open night and he;p/learn.
The camera is a separate session. We have already talked a bit about that. If you bring it one night when it is not an open night we can help you with that. Even a cloudy night would be ok for looking at that. Let me know when you want to do that.

Sasha GreenParticipantHi Terry
Thank you. I’m very keen to come along and learn.
Unfortunatley I’m away up in Auckland for the next members night but am trying to keep them free from now on so I can come along. I will be at the next one!

AnonymousInactiveHi
I will be heading to the observatory later on to try out my cameras on the 16 and 11. Weather looks fine till around midnight so I’ll make the most of the small gap 🙂
As always, if someone wants to come down I can help with thatI. I won’t be staying too late though as I had way too much rum last night lol
Cheers

AnonymousInactiveHi
I’ll be heading down later on tonight given how clear it is. I’ll be using the 16″ and 11″ to try capture some videos of Jupiter and Saturn.
Cheers

Sasha GreenParticipantWhat time are you thinking? I can’t sleep so could be keen to come down and join you and see how it all works.

AnonymousInactiveI was going to head down now, so I’ll be there just after 10:15. I’ll be down there for an hour or 2. I’m easy as to when you want to leave too
Cheers

Marc BunyanParticipantIf it keeps clear, I’ll be out on the 120 tonight – allowing for level 2+ guidelines.

Marc BunyanParticipantLooking to be out at the observatory later, after 7 – looking to use the 11″/120 (or be blinded by the moon!)
