Sorry about the clouds!

[matteboy]

New toy, big grins for me:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

So yes, it's all my fault that it's cloudy tonight, sorry about that, they just flew out of the box!

Can't wait for clear skies, I'll let you know what I find on first light:blob7:

hey matteboy, whats your new toy?

[matteboy]

So excited I forgot to add the pic!

[earth titan]

Phew. I thought it was my fault with an OIII filter purchase.

Nice scope. And thanks......

So thats why Dublin had an inch of rain last night and winds of 100 Kph.

[S.A.M]

Can you take your clouds back please? I have seen enough of them in Wiltshire to last me a life time or that what it seems like recently. Great scope, you should get some good views with it.

[bcfcciderhead]

sorry guys but i think some of those clouds are mine to when i opened up my nice new dob, and because of it still not used it

[Earl]

I have had cloud since 24th of October.. a break in the clouds on bonfire night.. but yeah right....

[rawhead]

Very nice Matt

The 200P at F6 is an excellent all round choice.

Are you going to take it somewhere dark?

You've got the Telrad strapped to the finder... Not seen that configuration before.

Cheers

That's how the Telread was attatched when I picked it up, and it's suprisingly well aligned, going to move it after a few more viewings to see where I want it to and whether to remove the finderscope or not, managed to get Jupiter, M31, Alberio and some more doubles in Lyra, went for M57 and the clouds rolled in, now the fluffy stuff is here for a while me thinks

Staggered what I saw in bad seeing so can't wait for top conditions, need a 2 x barlow next:D

Well impressed with the talrad view but going to take a little while to remember the view in the EP is upside down and back to front now so kept moving the scope the wrong way

Going to try and find a darker site soon when I get a bit more used to it and figure out how to get it there without breaking it!

Sooo excited:blob7:
