Complete noob, Glasgow.

[ronnietucker]

Hi folks!

Complete beginner from Glasgow here.

Telescope hasn't arrived yet but, having trawled the info here, I decided on the Sky Watcher Heritage 130P with a 2x Barlow lens. I did fancy getting a 200mm 'scope but I just don't have the space for it.

Looking forward to eyeing up the moon and what-not as soon as possible.

I get my 'scope tomorrow, so expect cloudy weather from tomorrow onwards.

Hi and Welcome. Your about half an hour away from me. You'll have less cloudy nights than I get. I moved here from Clydebank and my viewing nights halved. Strange what 10 miles will do.

Hi Ronnie and welcome to SGL, this is where you now learn the value of patience, especially when it clouds over as you unpack your boxes lol

What is this 'patience' that you all speak of?

Gah! It'll arrive when I'm out at work, so I'll have to wait until about 9pm before I can get my hands on it!

Hello Ronnie and welcome to SGL!!

[ronnietucker]

I've ripped the box open and will be pointing it at the moon as soon as humanly possible.

It's my first telescope so I think I'll take notes on first impressions, the 'scope, and what not and do a review (of sorts).
