10" Dob ordered!!

[Kain]

Woohoo! It's all quite real now.

I was still undecided which one to have 8 or 10, so the girlfriend had a hissy fit at me and ordered the 10 and told me to stop thinking and just blumming do it..

I got told!!

Still it's all very exciting now lol, I will just have to keep the clouds happy now by saying nice things about them ready for first light

no comment on the age thing hehe

Good choice Kain, you wont regret it!!

[geppetto]

Imagine, the women in your life forcing you into

buying a bigger scope than the one you wanted :shock:

I reakon Kain's got it made

Clouds go away so the guy can play with his new scope when it arrives :)

[Kain]

Shes had a winge for paying £330 for a glorified toilet roll tube mind.

I just switched off and just smiled and nodded.

[OXO]

Nice one Kain

[Kain]

I wont be here tomorrow, damn work lol!

Still I hate waiting for postmen etc, so it would probably better off!

Though as I still live at home, I would love to see moms face as 2 huge boxes are hauled in the house lol

Kain, have you seen the forecast :) !!!!! looks like you're going to break the new telescope hoodoo. 47 and I'm excited about your new telescope.

Think I'm going to get all stressy about whether to get a Starlight Express H9 CCD or a new Antares EP. Wonder if it'll work :?

[Kain]

Ive just finished putting it together!!

Blow me..it's huge!!!!!!!!!!!

Looking forward to trying it tonight though!!

I can't get over the size of the EP!

Kain

[Ambermile]

Hmm - so you put it together while you weren't there then? I suppose you also signed for it remotely...

Arthur :D

[Kain]

Nah I quit my job, had a huge row..

told them to shove it.

Kain

[Ambermile]

Interesting timing Hope you have other options though?

Arthur

[Kain]

Yeah I have something else to fall back on. Because I was the youngest there, it was my fault for everything to be fair I just had enough of it.

I got accused to scratching a car (I used to work with classic Jags) even though I wasn't at work the day it happened..I got the blame.

So thats it, told them I had enough of being everyones scapegoat and left.

To be fair, I have been unhappy there now for a while.
