Hi Dave,

Welcome aboard. I'm new to this forum, but not to astronomy (must post my own introduction...)

I remember the excitement of discovering the night sky maybe twenty years ago, and again a few weeks ago after around a decade away from observing. It's addictive and friends and family tend to think of you as "a bit odd".

I just live down the road from you in rainy Thornaby, so if you need local help with anything, feel free to get in touch.

All the best on the journey....it certainly is a great hobby....The Esprit scope is a dream of mine and a good aspiration to have if you can afford that range.

Wave bye bye to that severance money!!! 😜🤣
