Just back in from observing session. I fought the clouds and glad I did! Got my best ever views of Mars and Saturn thanks to my new kit.

Went to Telescope House today. Lovely place and lovely people. Picked up telrad dew remover, 2" 2x Barlow and some advice on Crayfords. Excellent service.

Built a desiccant cap out of an old bolt case with some holes drilled in it, and some silica sachets. Cost, about £3 for 100 packs.
