      Rub a candle down the edge to wax it to see if that fixes it. Only plane if really necessary as it will shrink in warm weather and go loose. Good luck.

  7. Having done a period of consultancy I did my last ever day in the office today. Retired after 34 years with the practice.

  8. finally got myself a dew strap and controller coming! not that ill need it now, but will come in very handy next summer :)

      Id agree, now is a busy time for my dew controller with the damp autumn days and cold nights. I only get about 30mins without dew at the momemt unless I have my secondary heater on. And I agree witht the frost issue, 2 weeks ago at kielder my gloves were sticking to the frost on my scope but I managed all night wih a clear secondary.

      cheers
