stevescan Posted July 1, 2017 Author Share Posted July 1, 2017 Thank you gentlemen, this is not my only hobby so I think I can just wait it out until Christmas, though there is a store selling telescopes very close by, so in the next few weeks I will no doubt be dropping in and having a chat, just to see what is what, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it just a general store with a few scopes on offer, be aware of the hype! store keepers are adept at selling, its their business. There's no rush, just take your time, but with Christmas just 5 Months away, still no rush, just enjoy the process. And lastly, welcome to the SGL.
