Hi i'm Fern and am new to astronomy. I am looking into buying a telescope and was hoping to get some advice on which one would be best for a beginner like me.

Thanks in advance for your help and advice.

Good luck and clear skies

Welcome to SGL Fern! Which part of Hertfordshire? I spent 6 years or so in St Albans wondering where all the stars had gone due to light pollution

Hiya Fern, and a warm welcome to SGL. Go careful with your spondulex, and think before you buy.
