Anyone going to the GAC festival this year? I am looking at accommodation, the Westwood has rooms from €99 which is not bad.
Anyone bringing telescopes?

Hi John,
Dawn and I will be going and will hopefully stay at the hotel.
I'll be bringing along the 20" so lets hope we get a clear sky that night.

Carrying around my 20" obsession is going to kill me, but what a way to go. :)

I believe the 25th and 26th January with the main body of talks on the 26th (Saturday). I will plan to stay at the hotel on the Saturday night and hope for clear skies.
