      Is that to keep you awake or get you off to sleep?

      Personally for me two hours would make me feel like (fill in your own word) :)

      No point going to bed that late, I suspect that two hours sleep will be worse than having none...!

      Glad you had fun :)

      There really is no looking back once you've done it.

      Nice one :) Where are you moving too?

      House prices are silly.

      I have a big 5 bed detached house 3 reception rooms and office etc. For the same price you can get a BEDSIT around London outskirts.

      blumming crazy!

  11. Why did my bank have to give me a contactless card? Do they not know how unsecure they are... not to worry though, I've lined some foil in my wallet which should block the radio signals :).

      Nope, no pin required. That's the scary thing.

      I read all sorts of things about payments being made over longer distances than expected and even when cards were still in purses / wallets etc.

  14. Decisions, decisions. Thinking about selling the ST80 to fund a pair of bins.

  15. Finally got my guiding to work, It is a thing of beauty watch her ticking away, I could sleep to that sound.

  16. Hmm, clear skies so may drag myself out, question is: Is my 24mm Pan overkill for the little ST80? :D

      SGL isn't part of FLO or an extension to the FLO help desk. There is no guarantee that Steve will read any particular post on SGL.

      The only safe way is to contact them is through the help desk. I normally get an answer very quickly when I use it. Sometimes even out of hours.

      Try questions@firstlightoptics.com

      A few clear nights and your doubts will all be behind you. Chin up mate.

      I often feel like that, but find just getting out once reminds me why I'm in the hobby :)
