Not sure about me just yet... kicked off renovation works on Monday and things of course are already wavering off and on course. There's a good chance I'll be out and about selecting flooring and other humdrum.

It's great to see so many new users wanting to come to this meet.

I almost wish I wasn't flying out to HNL that morning.

Almost. :P

Unfortunately, I have to miss this one (going to that Wave Aid concert and need to get there early) but I'll be attending the 5th of Feb one I think.

The mini meet will be happened very often with the purposes of helping new owners/ members in many queries about the toy they have, and other topics as learning about cleaning CCD, workflow in digital photography, post processing or looking into some new glasses and gadgets and ready for lust once you're ready, so if you missed this week, there're many meets after, just stay tune to the forum!

Birddog - should be able to make it by 11am. Is that to late to catch the CCD cleaning session? Noticed a couple of dust bunnies on my Australia Day photos and I've decided it "wabbit season" :lol:

Bugger - I want to make one of these events before I leave to NZ, but unfortunately, I seem to work every Saturday at the moment. Oh well, if there's one in the next two weekends (not this one starting tomorrow), I hope to be able to make it :)

Sorry for the slightly off topic, but what do you include in the cleaning kit and what is the price?

Whilst I am not fond of Sydney, I wish it were a mite closer so that I could make one of the meets :(

I meant what cleaning supplies do you stock and what are the prices (I got the impression that you made up a kit from your post to johndec).

Ie Pec Pads, Eclipse and a Spatula / Tool to actually do it?

No I did not make up any cleaning kit.
Please check, and you'll see them in merchandise section

Hmm I'm also going to WaveAid, but in a work capacity. I'll see if I can't stick my head in for a bit though. :)

Welcome to the forum thadeus! you've done great works with your photos and am assuming you're a "jockey" as well.
Also welcome to the mini-meet this morning at my base.
