Hello everybody from staffordshire

[star girl]

Hi

I have just registered on the forum after learning lots from it for the last few weeks (thanks for all the info). Just received my first telescope, Skymax 127 on EQ3-2 standard mount. And its absolutely pouring down outside. Not fair!!!!

However, looking forward to telling you all about my first viewing soon.

Welcome to SGL!

Great scope the 127. It'll give you some great views when the skies clear! I've all but given up hope of a clear night without turbulence until September!

Real friendly and helpful bunch around here, don't be afraid to ask daft questions.

Hi Star Girl

Welcome to the forum. I'm sure you will enjoy your stay.

Hi Star Girl and welcome to the forum.

Many members alert each other regarding their recent purchases as a way of apologising in advance for causing the resulting bad weather that has a habit of forming when astronomical gear is bought - it seems you've reaped the consequences of buying some nice kit

Here wishing you clear skies shortly so that you get out there to do some observing! Looking forward to reading your review of how you got on.
