Hi Guys and Gals..
Great news, Stephen Kershaw of Ktec Telescope will be attending the Ballinskellig Astrocamp and he will be bringing his van full of Astronomy goodies for us all to drool over.. So make sure you bring your wallets as I'm sure he will have something to tempt you out of your hard earned cash. Also we will be holding a few talks and workshops for Saturday afternoon to help us kill time before we all go on another long nights observing. I will let ye know what talks are going ahead when I get a list of speakers.. So far we have Seanie Morris giving a talk on "Northern Hemispheres Southern Constellations", also John Flannery will give a talk on the "Night Sky with Unaided Eye"..
Cheers Roy

Hi Roy
Just as long as Carl brings that 16" Orion go-to dob.
Not that I could afford it, or even be able to lift it, but I would sure like to see M22 through it.

Stevie You were almost crying walking away from it last time, could you really put yourself through it again? It is a lovely bit of kit though.

Hi Roy Just as long as Carl brings that 16" Orion go-to dob. Not that I could afford it, or even be able to lift it, but I would sure like to see M22 through it. The answer to that Stevie is YES... He'll have the 16" beast plus a few more little babies for us all to drool over. Make sure you bring your wallets. Cheers Roy#ClearSkies #LunarNut

Excellent.
Just have to brush up on my hypnotism techniques now
"Carl, count slowly backwards from 10, you are becoming very sleepy, you want me to borrow your dob for the next four hours"
