Hi all

I live in Northwales and have wanted a telescope for a couple of years.

I was bought a skywatcher explorer 130p for christmas. It has taken me while to get the hang of it, but I have now seen jupiters moons, saturns rings and have had some nice views of the moon. I have got a lot to learn, and I know I shouldn't be wishing the light evenings away, but I wish it was a bit darker at the moment.

Hi there,

Good to have you on board and there's plenty of help for you on deck. Everyone if friendly and most of them don't bite but if they do, don't worry, I'm a first aider :D

The nights are a bit short at the moment but there is still plenty to see without getting frostbite in the process!

Clear skies
