I now remember....

.....what this hobby is all about. 

It's been WEEKS since I bought my new set up and yet it's not left the study once....🤔

kick back and admire it and shuffle the curtains every now and then. I know the feeling. And feel for you

I feel your pain. I got my first scope October 17th 2017. Four clear nights over new moon then two unexpected clear nights that I missed in the next five months.

Sorry to say this but your waiting may go on a bit. To quell the flames of disappointment you can buy more kit if you can afford it.

I wouldn’t recommend zoom eyepieces though, just don’t ask why😳

I know, I know... I got my super gorgeous RC10 in late November and it's had 3 nights use!

I set it up on Friday and it clouded out before full dark. 

What's that saying? There's no such thing as bad weather, you just have the wrong hobby? Or something like that.

As I type, the keyboard clatter is competing with rain lashing down on the conservatory roof.
Yes yet another SGL evening!

The unwritten rule of this hobby, 'Admire your kit more often than Use it'.
That has worked for me over the past 30+ years so I think its a reasonable rule.

Better to laugh about our lot, otherwise the tears won't stop.
