Count me in. I’m probably doing nothing much on either day.
Unfortunately I’m washing my hair that day.
i guess so p_p. i’ll be up at BUs and WGs place for a few days.
pity sibeen can’t make it.
Excellent. I look forward to catching up with youse just as much as I look forward to the event itself.
Boris said:

If he turned up we could all ritually shave his head and he won’t have to worry about washing his hair any more.
this is sibeen
It won’t be an officially sanctioned pud anyway; no matter what you lot claim.

I doubt either of us want that to come to pass.

Does it matter? They won’t be kissing you, remember?
What’s happening in March with rocks in space and other stuff
astrofest is like the old sssf but with visibly real people. and they all love telling you about their field. though BU gets a little embarrassed when he hears me asking someone a “silly” question.

Bullshit!!!
it would have to be one of the best science events going in Oz, 5000+ people is a darn good crowd.
I’ve never met an SSSFer I didn’t like. Oh wait, yes I have.
The Brissy Science Fest starts tomorrow.
What bullshit!!!
fixed.

is DV interested in attending astrofest?
We are here. There’s a lot of starwars stuff and characters. No idea why. :)

I think I saw him.
another great astrofest, they get bigger each year. We made (another) lego sattelite dish, found some high bounce balls, stickers galore, watched things explode at the scitech show, made and set off a carbonated drink rocket (that was pretty cool) got sprayed with said carbonated drink, looked at some astrophotography (one had the caption – this photo was taken at 3am in the morning – grr!) talked to a lady about setting up a new planet for humans to habitat after the sun blows up and checked out jupiter and the moon through a telescope. The only thing is that they need more telescopes there, the lines are getting too long and the conversations about what you can see too short.
I’m sure Boris will inform you on what the adults did.
Was there beer?

Can I hang out with you next time?
I thought the talks were a little flat.
no beer. really good coffee apparently. according to BU and WG.

I bought a slushie at the end ad was quite disappointed to find no vodka in it
it was thick with science. pretty pictures. couple of good talks. big queues at the telescopes. lots of kids. and noisy.

sure. we caught the end of that first talk (waiting for the sci tech show) he was rather bland
yes. he was. still the tech was interesting. 5cm cube to put your electronics into.

I’ve poured myself a spiced rum and dry, but I’m just slowly sipping it.

Have you been looking through your own telescope much at all? You never seem to mention it.

No, I haven’t got it out since I’ve moved here. I need to find a good spot to set it up, got a lot of trees aroud here and only small patches of sky to look at, But I need to get it out soon and starting using it again.
I’ve still never looked at Saturn with it. I want to see Starun for myself some day,

It’s a cute sight even in quite a small telescope.
