Newbie saying hi

[maw lod qan]

Welcome from across the pond. 

I have an 8" reflector, an Orion, and have had many nice nights out viewing.

I think you and SWMBO (shewhomustbeobeyed) are in for some great fun.

Hello, welcome and you have found an excellent site for answers to your questions 👍 I am going to echo what popeye85 said, planisphere, red light head torch and a massive shed for all the stuff you are going to buy 🤣👍 I would also look at an app for your phone, I got sky guide which I find extremely user friendly plus I have also recently downloaded stellarium on the laptop which seems to be endless in what it's able to do.
