Hi from Sheffield

Hi from Sheffield, My name is Andy and i have just took the plunge and got my first scope, thanks to my wife for the great 40th birthday present. Its a 5" Celestron Mak. Used it last night for the first time and got some good views of Jupiter and its moons. It was great to see and i am looking forward to the dark nights.
