That's Thursday next week, could be interesting.

Where did you get that info from, and will you (03stormchaser) be able to go if it's on a Thursday? Maybe it's on later at night?

Editied 2 seconds later!:

Ah crud, just read the post again and I see 7:30pm. :oops:

Can you two send it up this way when you've finished with it?

(Or contact me if you manage to get a copy of the proceedings :D )

Thansk

(No, "Thansk" isn't a typo - It's a small village just south of Oslo where I was born. World famous for the Fish-Slapping dance. I'm not making this up just to cover a simple finger-fart that would have been easier to correct than try and justify the error. Not that I admit to any typo, you understand).

Do you mean, record the evening onto video and send a tape to you? That can be arranged. Is this what you mean? 03 storm has a video camera so it can be done.

I Didn't think of that, might be ok to do anyway.

Of course you can go John, it was in the Star occording to 03 for all to attened whoever they may be. It doesn't seem as if it's going to be thunderstorm related. Its apparently about the Avon or Heathcote flooding and how things have been done to prevent it, also some stuff on earthquakes. The other stuff I'm not sure.

I won't be picking anyone up though, if anything they'll be picking up me! That's if I go.

Copyrighted eh? Hmmm....If I go we'll just see what the situation is on the night.

I think videos are generally not accepted, but if it's a low-key seminar it wouldn't hurt to ask.

I was thinking more along the lines of speakers abstracts etc, but it sounds as though it's not quite that formal.

Never mind. Pinch a sachet of sugar instead ;)

Enjoy the show.
