Tme to start the nursery!

Oh wow the street lights have gone out... oh but it's thick haze and a full moon... cruel cruel world why do you tease so much!

merry Christmas and clear sky's to one and all... (probably more so the clear sky's if I'm honest)

This paternity leave is going to be no good for my wallet, short and long term, probably won't be too good for cloud cover either.. 6mm SLV and I was close on the 9 mm too.

It's not at all irrational if it's green & black, despite the fact I already have a perfectly fine 32mm plossl.. ah who am I kidding it's a illness resulting in giddy episodes and contentment.

Chores got in the way of my first light with the wedge and starwave.. maybe tomorrow if I'm lucky!

lunt wedge has arrived, now let's have a look at this monster!

A lunt dispatch notification... hens teeth i've been waiting for that! Might just catch that monster spot yet!

Great night with the new scope at thrusts cross reservoir, it'll be fantastic around new moon!

Right, well, I had one G&T and fell asleep at 9... Please tell me it was cloudy in North Yorkshire last night and it cleared up an hour ago! :-/

unboxing tonight..... :-)

fairly sure someone's just burnt their toast!

ah there you are jacques.... jumps right out at you when you look in the right place... a correctly orientated star chart helps no end!

Stripped it down and flocked it up, rebuilt and out viewing in under 2 hours... very pleased!

The double cluster looks fantastic tonight, however this fog back that is rolling in off the wharfe is giving me the hebejebies!

London Town today for the first time in 16 years, function at the Grosvenor House... Im going to be so out of place it will be sureal! However i do have a few hours to spare before i get suited and booted.. any suggestions other than the widescreen center!

someone just landed an evostar90 for £50 ish on ebay... I think that constitutes a right bargain!

saturn and the moon looking great tonight.. wish I had more rhan the travel scope to play with.. still lovely views from corfu.

reasonably sure ive just my head solar white lighting... got to say I was pleased with the ikle 80mm frac last night.. worth dragging to corfu for a week.

Curse my inquisitive mind... Soooo hershel wedges seem interesting.. (Feeling my feet go from under me, didn't even realise I was stood on the slippery slope!)

Feel like I've been Michael Fish'd.. Fully clouded over but according to two weather apps it's actually clear! Genuinely a bit gutted... Might look out in a few hours..

Crumbs it's getting cold... Enough playtime withe frac, time to put the newt on for an hour or two!

The evostar 90 has just made my day.. I've got a good half dozen street lights 100ft away, and sat in the shade of a lovely thick Hawthorne bush I'm just chuffed to bits how we'll it's done.. The semi apo filter can have a thumbs up too!

Anybody else see a small black orb pass in front of Jupiter arond 23:35.. satellite maybe..?

yeeesss clear skys... it might be LP'd to heck but I went for the evo90 over the 200p and im genuinely pleased with the choice.. all smiles!
