Mr H in Yorkshire

The PC version certainly does, I use it.

We conversed about this all a while back - I know the problems you faced. Hope it all goes well and no mishaps.

Everything has its time! Interesting to see the construction and deconstruction.

Why only a temporary roof cover, Correx is such a versatile and useful material?

My son has a 12" Skywatcher collapsible DOB - it is at the absolute limit of practicality in mobility terms, both weight and bulk. Without a permanent setup or obsy (as described by many above), because of it's challenges it seldom gets used which is sad because its performance is breath taking.

Stellarium doesn't go on iPad as far as I understand, Stellarium mobile yes but not Stellarium.

The current Astronomy Now magazine has a good article on exactly this topic.

My wife likes and collects 1930's pottery. I have a pretty obvious ulterior motive. What's good for the goose....

I have long understood and espoused, that you can best judge a business not from when things are going smoothly but how they deal with problems.

All the technical advice you could ever want, inspirations from other peoples ideas and a laugh in the Lounge. As they say 'What's not to like'.

Otherwise what about a couple of tiny ear man buns, very on trend. PS I'm just jealous as I've more hair in my nostrils and ears than on top!

I failed the test, they suggested I try Densa. (98% bigger membership)

That is some seriously long nasal hair, why not plait it?

It sounds more that you are rich in opportunities rather. Do both!

Comes complete with a bright sporadic. Cool.

To which you answer, 'No but I seen Mars'.

@Swillis Yikes, you've made me think about the hazard of inadvertently (that's my excuse your honour) selecting the rear facing camera! That would definitely have been too much information. It is such a shame because the sky really was stunning, the blood red extended from the Eastern horizon to the far west where the moon was still visible. No amount of processing will make any difference.

A couple of days ago there was a gobsmacking red dawn sky, like something out of an alien invasion movie. I was showering but so impressed that I rushed downstairs, grabbed the phone, ran back, opened the velux (thereby freezing my assets) and took this. I've got one with the moon in, it's even worse!

We simply could not afford to live in London any more. Moved to a small dales town, it was like moving to heaven. We lived at the lower end of Clive Road, the River Effra (see old maps) ran along the gardens there, ours was so waterlogged that it was unwalkable in winter. I dug a pond for frogs and about a spade depth down water actually squirted out of worm holes. The upside was that while most houses suffered damage from clay shrinkage in that era, if you look carefully you will see all the cracked lintels along the road, but ours did not, nor did the massive trees at the garden junctures suffer either.

That area can be really soft and soggy. When my kids were very young I took them there on first bikes. My daughter went careering down the slope straight towards a tree. I sprinted after her and had to 'rugby tackle' the bike to save her. I was covered from head to toe, the wet mud even went inside my shirt, but when I said we must go home they threw such a tantrum of disappointment that I had to let them play for an hour. I got some very odd looks!

I know Upper Norwood from the '80s when living in London, so I must ask, where do you go to see the sky?

This truth was impressed on me as a callow youth going to college one day via a large academic bookseller up in central London. I noticed a book so big I could barely span it with my (big) hands. It was titled 'A short Introduction to...'

Where do these stories (myths) come from. We had collected a load of conkers for the grandsons, they were down in our cellars which are spider heaven (hell to my wife). Within a day they were totally covered in web.

Bigger than a bread basket but smaller that Yugoslavia. A quote from a surrealist play I heard about 50 years ago.

Hi Steven this is the sort of tool I mean, here is a link to Amazon's offering for screw extractors. Good luck, such things are a devil to sort. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Nuovoware-Extractor-Stripped-All-Purpose-Extension/dp/B08XXP1SD9/ref=asc_df_B08XXP1SD9/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=499390094390&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=3749105306694672198&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9045818&hvtargid=pla-1210991607051&mcid=3f1c778abd973e5c839595b52777494b&th=1
