Who's up for it??

[qweeg500]

I've got my leave approved and the missus has given me a free ticket for Saturday. I should be there Friday night hopefully.

Matt

I intend to be there. I will be bringing my bow making stuff.

If anyone who is coming has an Allan Blade knife, can you find me and let me have a look?

Chris I have a couple I will bring along that you can have a look at, see you there

 

[Lithril]

Sam and I will be there, in fact I think I've successfully volunteered Sam do a talk/demo on map/compass/navigation for anyone whos interested.

 

[Tony]

Anyone good at celestial navigation? I know that a few people coming would be interested in that.

 

[Womble]

I can do the pole star and Orion, and with a bit of persuasion, I might be able to borrow the telescope my Scout Group has, if that would be any help. It's great for seeing the detail on the moon.

 

[greg2935]

I know the main constellations and have used the North star to navigate if that helps, if anyone has a digital camera that allows an open shutter for more than five mins, I could show exactly how the stars move across the heavens etc. To be honest it takes all of about 5 mins to show where the north star in relation to the other constellations, after that you will never forget them so it wont take long.

I'll also bring copies of star charts that people can take away. If there are too many people, I can always email them a pdf version when I get back.

i'll be bringing my planisphere with me i always have it in my pack when i'm out over night nice toy and good fun too.

 

[hootchi]

Have a nice time folks. It's bang in the middle of my exams so will not be able to make it. Maybe next time.

Cheers.

Glad to see someone else has also been 'volunteered'. Well done to Sam.

Be good to see you both again...
