Did Santa get you astro stuff?

[JB80]

He got me an autofocuser and suppresion pads, one of those nifty clocks with the temperature and moon phases and I suppose you can count a nice camera bag too. He is also working on another special thing mentioned in my sig.

How did everybody else do?

Merry Christmas.

Jarrod.

[PreludeToADream]

New 'scope (mainly self bought but used some Christmas money) and Turn Left At Orion 4th Edition.

Also got some money which I'll put towards a couple of new eyepieces.

[ianaiken]

SGL Calender, Holst the Planets CD, Cosmos Book, Star Wars socks, Science Museum Solar System, custom painted night and day mug (we did some pottery painting)

[Charon]

Wanted a 8mm Radian but got a tin of Quality Street .

[LukeSkywatcher]

My mother bought me SPM's "Yearbook Of Astronomy 2012",gave me a cheque for half the price of my new scope and also bought me a Pete Lawrence scarf (you know......the one he wears during winter on the tv show).

My 8 yr old niece bought me the Philip's Astronomy Starter pack: glow in the dark planisphere,solar system poster and a book "exploring the stars and planets".

I have a Philip's planisphere already but it is not a glow in the dark one, so thats majorly cool.

All in all..............astronomically i did pretty well.

A few clear nights over the Christmas would be the icing on the cake.

[The_PSY3NTIST]

He brought me the Haynes space shuttle owners manual. Just got to get me a shuttle now

Merry Christmas everyone

Nice one - I wonder if he got millions and millions and millions of socks.

Did OK myself: got the Cambridge Photographic Star Atlas and 3 bottles of single malts. And just one pair of socks.

Ooh I got a Star Wars stuff too, It's majorly cool. It's a book called "The Jedi Path" and comes in this vault that when you press a button and the doors open and the book raises out.

Star Wars definitely counts as astro stuff.

[faulksy]

[cantab]

Nothing astro related. Wish he'd bring me a cloud remover.

[assasincz]

I have actually got one of the coolest presents so far, and some additional money for intended purchase of a 12" dobsonian.

I wonder how many of us stargazers were given geeky Star Wars related stuff:D

Let me know how you get on with that, I've been thinking of getting one....

[Tzetze]

I got "Astronomy: An introduction to the universe". A book I'd seen on sale in LIDL a few times but never bothered buying. It's actually much more indepth and interesting than I'd thought it might be.

And some € folding money which means my new 'scope funds are now complete. I will be ordering an ED80 DS Pro as soon as FLO are open for business again. Roll on the 3rd!
