Hi From Essex

[Bluey]

Hey all,

Just to say hi from lovely Essex, I am just getting into astronomy and am lucky to live in a fairly rural area, so the nights are pretty dark, although sadly, it still gets cloudy here!

At the moment I am just finding my way round the sky with some pretty rubbish bins, but I'm amazed how cool the view is, even with these, in fact I even found Andromeda, and it felt pretty good, unfortunately since then it has been cloudy!

So just to warn you all, be prepared for all the usual questions when the time comes for me to buy that first scope, hope u all have a lot of patience!

I know Tolleshunt Major, my wife and her family are from Maldon.
