This was the last big display we had over our new house back in March 13th 2022. Hopefully more to come as solar max gets nearer.

Moved away from the coast at Thurso and moved inland. Poorer for weaker aurora but makes no difference when you get displays like this.

A real star among stars,will never be forgotten.

After receiving an invoice for my order stating the balance had been paid in full and the amount due was £00.00 i was shocked to recieve an e mail telling me my order would be sent to me when i paid an extra £20 for delivery to the Highlands.

Had i not received an invoice stating i owed them nothing i might have paid it but refused to pay the extra and cancelled the order.

I find this practice of asking for more cash after your order has not only been taken, but also paid for,a rather questionable way of conducting business and its the last bit of attempted business they will get from me.

Even living up here it always seems they can manage to deliver within 2 days.

In a way i'm glad i dont live near any big astro shops otherwise i would probably be skint.

Well after weeks of waiting i finally got round to taking my first prime focus DSO.Weather had been stormy all day then suddenly the sky cleared and the wind dropped(still gusting to over 30mph though).Lost quite a few subs because of the wind.
