brantuk Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 If you don't look after work you'll never afford that shiny new TV eyepiece or triplet refractor lol. Good decision Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris H Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Buy some thermal long johns and a long sleeve thermal top you'll never be cold again. And tomorrow It'll be cloudy and then you'll be sorry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Double Kick Drum Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 A quick five minutes with the 15x70s for me, just to tide me over.The next clear spell could be a while! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 A couple of hours for me before Stargazing Live was enough - I was glad to come in, it really was freezing!The last few evenings have been great. I've even left my scope in the garage (now burglar alarmed!) for the last five nights, put together and ready to go. I usually keep it in the dining room and have a four trip trek round to the garden.I fear it will be back in the dining room tomorrow, though, looking at the weather.
