Well, I have my flights booked from shannon, the hotel is sorted and I'm waiting for my admittance ticket, I cant wait :P !, I need to be really careful as I could return from it in severe debt so I might leave the credit card at home as there are 2 floors of astro goodies to be sorted through. :shock:

Frank,

I am gutted to say that I am not going over for this. The guy I was teaming up with is out of action with a trapped nerve. Its probably just as well since I have now cleared my credit card and I KNOW for sure I would have found something to max it out again. I wanted to see the meade max mount and RCX which telescope house will probably exhibit so I could have ended up with a very serious case of excess baggage on the return flight.

:D :D
I hear ya!
I'm half thinking of leaving my card locked in the freezer at home
where it can do no harm.

It's a pity ye can't make it.
I'm looking forward to it bigtime.

Sorry to hear that Kieran,
I'll give the RCX a good once over and we'll finally see the mad max mount :P
