      Hi Dave, I'm fine. I'm having long periods of malfunctions with my pc and i'm on the hunt for a new one. Too much work as well. How about you? :)

      Must have been a difficult repair to take two months.
      I hope it behaves itself now, and lets you catch up :icon_biggrin:.

      Yeah finally. Lost almost all my files. Lots of music - a bit hard to find. No worries though, it's going to be aaaaaallright.

      This is why I have two back-ups on two (kept separately) external hard-drives of all my files. I hope you can find them hiding somewhere.

  5. Damn Exeter! What a try!

  6. Chicago Bears need to get a good quarterback and a better offensive line. The guys keep losing the ball from their hands. Fumbles, sacks jeez... FRUSTRATION....

      Excuse me for being the pessimist (more like the realist) here but I don't think there will be more than 3 wins top. Anyway, one can only hope Dave!

  7. Nice image! Hope you had a nice time! Come again soon!

      Damn! I know you could mess with the concentration with mixin the flavors etc. If the concentration of nicotine in the flavor bottles is false I suppose you could get that.

      I was on 30 a day nearly 2 years ago, i went onto an E cig starting with 18mg nicotine and now vape 10mg strength, remember you can get very low nicotine or even zero nicotine, since taking up the E cig i have not touched a proper cig

      Nice! I will buy one when I raise the money!

  11. It's just goes to show what a dermined man can achieve It's a beauty! Wish that mirror is on the dob soon, and that the construction phase comes to an end. Then on to OBSERVING!
  12. Been in a village 750m above sea level. Only thing I saw was Mars, Jupiter and the Summer Triangle. Damn those clouds!

      Was clear patches here, until of course it started to go darker then thick clouds rolled over. Been terrible for weeks now at 0m above sea level

      Knighty2112

      Yep. Nice and clear here till dark started to fall, then high cloud started covering up everything! Grrrrr.......

      Haven't seen a thing like that before guys. They were light, super thin clouds, that travelled  like smoke in the air and they kept blocking all the light. Moon, Mars, Jupiter were clearly visible. But anything else wasn't. Frustration

  13. If you know who is faint, faint faint nebulas and tiny galaxies far far far away yes he definetely will!
  14. 20" sounds like science fiction to me. Only looked through a 60mm refractor LOL. Keep us updated, i hope the construction will be finished the sooner so we can get a first light review from you faulksy.
  15. Happy birthday Tzitzis! I wish you to get a brand new telescope! :p:p:p

      ok that makes so much more sense, In canada Rugby was popular. Brutal but popular. though recently i watched a us rugby match up. I cant believe how tame the game was

  18. Wonderful (Moon) tonight.... :D

    1. Dave In Vermont

      Dave In Vermont

      Though lovely, my Moon was yellowish. Likely this is from all the smoke from forest-fires in the west. You're lucky - so far!

  19. Enjoyed the best view of our star yesterday-no scope. About 7:30 easily seeing it without sunglasses a perfect round disc of white-yellow colour...

      I guess you are right. They'll turn up I guess. I 'll let you know guys.

    4. Stargazer33

      Stargazer33

      If they don't turn up can you not claim on the insurance? Household insurance should cover it I would have thought. Even if you don't get the full amount, it may be enough to let you get out and do something!

  22. Moved from Patras to Athens. Forgot all my EP's in the home with some other stuff ;(
