Hi UncleOrinoco,

Maybe not exactly what you're looking for but, there is a talk given by Seanie Morris in Tullamore tonight (Tuesday) about The Perseids meteor shower. I think it's open for visitors to come along (maybe Seanie or another member could verify this??).

See www.tullamoreastronomy.com/index.asp for more details. They also seem to be holding a Perseid-spotting barbeque on Saturday but again not sure if that's open to non-members either.

I'll be hoping to attend tonight but may end up having to work late this evening!

Verified! ;)

The star-b-q will also be an open ticket affair, in that it will be open and we don't give tickets so we don't mind who comes along. The barbie and heat will be provided, just bring everything else you think you'll need. After tonights talk, more information will be posted once us committee members have a chat about it at tonights meeting.

Pity - can't make it tonight due to a removal. I'll keep my eyes peeled on the forum for announcements though.

In the meantime, I bullied a friend of mine into letting me use his backgarden outside Ashbourne over the weekend, which only succeeded in providing me with fabulous views of the grey rainclouds. :roll: At least I have a spot now!

Seanie, (or anybody who knows the area)

I will be able to come along tonight accompanied by the girlfriend. I've checked out a map of Tullamore and I'm pretty sure I can get to High St easily enough. What should I look out for in terms of landmarks if I am coming onto High St from Kilbeggan (via N52)?

Thanks,
Brian

Seanie - there seems to be a problem with your site - getting error messages when I try to go to it. VB6 errors.
