  1. AZ4.... I'm impressed....

  2. Consistently outwitted by squirrels today. They either scamper off at the first sound of my approach or loiter in the Sun like a marauding Messerschmitt.

  3. Massive school boy error. Come all the way down to Exmoor for the dark skies, setup up the CG5-GT, went to plug in the power and find out I left the power lead at home.

  4. Sorting out all my gear to take to Exmoor with me, hope it will be worth it.

      Will you be treating yourself to a travel scope for your, erm, travels after selling up?

      Sorry to hear that. I know it took you quite a while to decide what you were going to go for.

  8. Anyone want to come and fit new skirting boards? I HATE D.I.Y!

  9. Mmmm, thinking of turning to the darkside and trading in my C8 for an imaging scope but I know I will regret it. :(

  10. Oh look, perfectly clear skies forecast - must be a full moon..... :-(

  11. another weekend of fridge darks....yippe! lol :(

      I know, I was taking the pee. The way you worded it for anyone that doesn't know sounds like the bulb has as packed up in the fridge causing you to have fridge darks or dark fridge.

  13. Decided on a Canon 'L' lens for imaging instead of a scope.

      Yeah, been looking at them. I think the 1.4 will be next years purchase.

      Yeah, cheers for giving me the heads up about it. More expensive than the scope but will work out better for me in the long run.

      'L' lenses aren't cheap but it's worth it for the quality.

      I'm fed up of buying cheap then having to buy twice.

      Yeah as I will have the best of both worlds, night and day photography.

      Going to wait until I get somewhere with garden then purchase an imaging scope like the 130pds as I already have the mount.

      I've been waiting for one to come up on the used market but I think I may have to buy new as they very rarely come up.

      No, not really. The 80 has the focal length but it is heavier but the ZS71 is faster and more portable which I need. And yes, the WO is a sexy looking scope.

      Nice. I'm likely to end up with the WO ZS71.

      Got to sell some stuff to get it though. Need a small one for when my Skywatcher Star Adventurer gets delivered.

  23. Went to go and spend some money down at The Telescope House only to find that they are not open on Saturdays anymore. What is that all about?!

  24. Just been messing with EOS Utility, what a great piece of software.

  25. My baby (600D) is home, baader modified and ready to rumble. Thx Juan.

      Wasn't it just. Look forward to seeing some of the results from the mod.
