Star Party Timings

[Ant]

I have a mankini already packed.

[lulu57]

That's it - I'm bringing the camera if Ant's having a Borat moment!

[Mr Spock]

Mankini... That't the most disturbing thing I've heard in a long time

Sunday night looks clear so the Variable Star workshop is looking good. Everyone welcome  You'll get guidance first hand on observing variables using the scope I use.
The morning session covers all the practical and science stuff. Do you know how many types of variables there are? Variables help us understand the science of stellar evolution from birth to grave  There'll be practical stuff like how to read variable star charts; how to record observations; making magnitude estimates; understanding Julian dates and all the other wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff!

 nobody wants to see the SGL admin team in bikinis - am I right @daz @Ant @Steve

No, no, NO!  Please no bikinis!  

[cjdawson]

That would be funny.  All the SGL Admin team, in bikinis, in the middle of the night.   It'll be freezing!
