Yah...I don't think I want to cough up more cash, seeing that I may not even sell anything :-(

Hi guys, I don't know if you guys mind. I live in Bendemeer/Whampoa area in a private estate. Outside my house is a park with ample parking. It may be ideal to set up some tables. Those with cars can just show your stuff from your car. You should be able to catch some skies from here. Jupiter is usually visible. Plus I could throw in some food and drinks for you guys.

The location is accessible via Boon Keng MRT.

Only setback, I am doing some reno to my house now. Hopefully it will be ready by then.

Let me know what you guys think.

No problem! The timing can be suited to when you are back in Singapore. Later part of the month or early July shouldn't be a problem.

Cheers!
