Hello from Kirkintilloch

[LongJohn54]

Hello all.

Just bought a Telescope Services 127 Refractor from a member here, who naturally recommended that I join up. So here I am. I'm still a newbie but learning all the time.

I've recently joined the Central Scotland Observers Group (CSOG) forum (Scottish Astronomers) and hope to be getting out to some dark sites soon.

Hi John a warm welcome to SGL,

I'll hopefully see you on Saturday at the observing session and see your new scope in action mate.

Cheers

hi welcome to sgl from bedfordshire

[LongJohn54]

Looking forward to it Steve

The scope will look good but not sure about the 30 year old mount it'll be sitting on. I'll be taking a keen interest in what other people bring along.

Hi John, good to see another Kirkie guy on here. The Campsies have some great observing sites, almost totally hiding the Glasglow....

Welcome to the forum and feel free to join our online community in the communities tab for central scotland astro.

Cheers John. I am glad to see you joined SGL. Lots of helpful people here, who will be happy to give advice, answer queries etc. I have always found SGL to be a friendly place.

See you at a CSOG observing session sometime.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome messages. I've had a brief look around SGL and can see answers to many of my questions already.

Thanks also to Tom as it's his scope I bought.
