Thanks Mark. Petra and I would like to take you up on that offer.

I'm likely to go up to Astrofest on Friday.

The Thing

I would like to take you up on your offer Mark as well. See you (and the rest of the motley crew!) on Saturday.

P.S. Don't anyone buy anything at Astrofest (:evil:) or there will be no chance of a gap in the clouds :D

Fay

Mark you got me thinking & I feel a bit bad. In future when i take advantage of yours & Dee's  hospitality, i will bring a sleeping bag anyway. it never occurred to me       :oops:

ditto and a pillowcase when I do come.

Unfortunately much as I would have loved to have come Mark I have already arranged to meet up with a crowd from Astronomy Shed who are coming on the Saturday.  I'm going on Friday too to meet up with another bunch of people and with what time I have left between the two days of socialising will do some browsing.

Don't worry - it's never been a problem - we're used to having friends stay over.  It's just that this time round, it'll make it a bit easier for us.

Make's sense. A bit silly to have to wash all those bedclothes just for people staying one night. We'll bring a large blanket to cover the bed and two sleeping bags.

So that's Julian, Duncan, Mike and Petra so far ...

Turn up any time between 4pm and midnight on Saturday.  Sunset is at 5pm.  We'll send an emissary down to the chippie when we get hungry.  I'll get some sausages and bacon in, for breakfast sarnies.

I'll give you a sneak preview of my observatory plans!

I won't be offended if the weather's bad and you decide not to come.

Too late :-(
Looks like Saturday's weather has already sussed that we'll be buying stuff.  I'm hoping to be at Astrofest on Friday - see you there.
