Re: Melbourne Meet

At the playground with the wooden tower next to Madeline's Teahouse that we met the last time?

I have relatives visiting from overseas in October, just going to confirm when they will be here in October before I can give a definitive answer.

Re: Melbourne Meet

Sounds good Gav, I actually know where that is, not an easy place to navigate in the dark, lets hope for weather like this.

Re: Melbourne Meet




I took a video of how to get to the playground next to Madeline's. we will use the tower again for long range beamshots.

The video starts just as I enter the gate via the Waverley Rd entrance and ends at the carpark opposite the playground where the meet is proposed.

There is too much light pollution, close to town, aren't you used the nice dark skies like I see here Simon?

Simon discovered for himself that, I have a bad habit of creating my own light pollution!:naughty:

Camping at Mt Cole.

My back paddock.

Re: Melbourne Meet

Thanks for the video Gav. I must admit, I was distracted by your choice of music, and had to watch twice to learn the directions!

Proposed starting time?

I live 20 mins from Jells Park, but my calendar tells me I'm at a function in Berwick on Sat 8th until at least the early evening :(

Re: Melbourne Meet

Yeah, I was under pressure to use Norm's favourite song for the video background music. If not I'm sure he was going to delete my post.:duh2:
