A huge fat check. Life changing money. Part of my inheritance.

I'd say the scope alignment was off a bit when observing Saturn. First time I saw it, it raced across the FOV. Jupiter didn't. The Moon used to race across too, until I tweaked alignment. Then it crept across. -
When observing, I'm never in a rush to find things. I must admit to not using a finder scope, RDF or even the Go-To function. I just like to casually stumble around the universe and see what I come across. Productive or not, it's how I like to observe.

What are the chances. That's a once in a lifetime shot.
-
I cant justify the cost because of the traffic in my town. Its quicker to walk anywhere, and it's free.

Now I think about it, Molly would take care of everything (given half the chance).

Looks like one half of a pair of slippers.
-
Seen as I'm terrified of house spiders, its safer to be outside. They dont follow me there. All I get outside are bats,rats and cats. The cats take care of the rats and I like bats, so only the Boogy man to worry about. Molly would see him off.

I saw ball lightning when I was a young teen. It was a globe of white/blue. It was about 6-7 inches in diameter, and it hovered about 5ft off the ground for a good few seconds before vanishing in an instant.

Too long a period of time to be a meteor.

I remember it well. Biggest I've ever seen.

On wet days when we cant get out...

I was at home watching clouds on tv. -
When observing while seated, the muscles in your eyes are relaxed and no pressure from bending your neck. This leads to better views.
-
DT=date All fixed now. Exact time (AM light has turned off because its PM)) and date. So neeners to all you doubting Thomas's.
-
I'm sure when I figure it out that the AM will only light up after midnight. It's a great watch. A bargain.
-
Theres no PM on it. I haven't set it up properly. There were no destructions in the envelope.
-
Can I have the Polo (life saver). Thanks.

6:02 pm.

Not astro related, but I ordered this watch a month ago and it arrived this morning. Great quality build. 7 euros.
-
I saw some of these clouds a few days ago.
-
My postman doesn't like me. Never brings me nice things. It a female postie, so that explains it.
-
I don't see DSO's in colour. The universe to me is shades of grey and white. The exception being the planets, and stars that are not actually white.
-
Please please please buy more astro gear. Lots more. This heatwave is killing me. Not as hot here as last year, but it's not far off it.

Donning the right t-shirt for today
