Hi Paul. .

I have an events page on Facebook called Ballinskellig Astrocamp 2014 if ye wanna go with that??
I also like Roys Romp but I think it might send out the wrong impression about the weekend, although it might open up a lot of possibilities for me..lol

Cheers Roy

Hi all..

I just received a PM from Michael Murphy letting me know
that when he tried booking a room online that it came up
that they were fully booked.. This is because they have pre-booked
most rooms for us attending" Ballinskellig Astrocamp 2014"(Guess we'll go with this name).

For those of you still to book a room I recommend that you call them up and
tell them it's for this event.. I know they a few dorms and single rooms left.

Also i got an email from Frida saying that can use the living room on Saturday
to give our talks and workshops, so anybody out there that can get their hands
on a projector for the talks it would be really appreciated.

Cheers Roy

hi Roy,

If Frida (or anyone) has a large flat-screen monitor/TV we can probably hook the laptops up to that for the presentations instead of an actual digital projector. For the size of the group that would probably suffice?

Talk soon,

John

That makes sense John,
I'm sure there would be a
TV there for us to use.
I'll bring a HDMI cable with me.

Cheers Roy
