Would love to, I would like to do a sensor clean soonish as well. :)

HOWEVER- I will still be 1400km away on Australia Day. Maybe another time. :)

Good Luck, Tristan

Would love to WW but unfortunately, I'll be away from Canberra on Australia day as well.

Regarding sensor cleaning, maybe it's worth arranging a meet sometime?

Would like to meet some of the Canberra members.

I should be around on the day, want to try my hand taking some photos of the concert @ parli house. Also the Roulette's will be doing a routine as well as far as I know :)

I started cleaning my sensor a few months ago with some advice from CD (thanks mate :)), only too happy to help others out

Craig, I'm glad you'll have a chance to meet some of the Canberra chapter, I'm sure you'll have a ball! Maybe you can drag Andy along too?

I will be back by then, but I will most likely be busy. :S I may be able to get out for some of the day, but may not be able to.

Any likely locations floating 'round though?

Yeah, I'll be camping, based from Tom Groggin.

Should get there Wed night. Heading off straight after work.

Sat 11/2 suits me fine. Any suggestions for where?
