      South west Ireland. Great dark skies there, but often cloudy. Not really a stargazing holiday specifically, but you never know I may bag a few when the clouds break up.

      apart from the obvious an atlas will be handy. Hope you have a great time.

  2. Not sure what to buy after UHC, BST 12 or 5 is kinda tempting. The latter for Jupiter based on my experience with the 8mm I think the 5mm woud give a nice mag I woudl use on planets a lot ( without barlow mostly ) . I am not one for ultra high mag on planets anyway in my scope. 6mm already works quite well though, but that could go.

      Another spanner in the works, temping also :D, but may be later with 2 inch eyepiece, but I do not have that option with my current scope. A bit of background saving has already begun for the 10 inch DOB. Will not be spending much more on current scope accessories, apart from a BST or two max.
