Yes, lots of fires in Victoria, but not up here in NSW at the moment. The weather has been warm to hot, but it isn't as hot as it has been some years. In spite of all these CLOUDS getting in the way of good comet pictures, none of them seem to be leading to rain, and that is what we really need.

I'm surprised at how little fuss there has been about the comet. The only other Ozcat to post on this thread has been freda underhill, and the only time I find people who are interested is when I go to the lookouts and talk to the other comet nuts. Oh well......

My dad was very much into astronomy. He would have loved this if he had still been alive.
