Where do all the ep caps go?!

[palebluedot]

They must end up in the same place as the socks, screwdrivers and rechargeable batteries (other dimensions have crossed my mind). I wouldn't mind, but my scope goes no further than my back yard and 3 caps have gone AWOL in as many months.

Does anyone have a good source of cheap caps, I think I might need to buy in bulk

Astroboot (Scopes n Skies) was the place for these kind of things but still no sign of it coming back yet although it is meant to be soon.

The planned return was the end of February, well, that's what they told me when I asked them a while ago

That sounds about par for the course. Look down the back of your sofa, it's amazing what accumulates in there.

Add guitar plectrums to the list...

And pencils and pens.

Mysteriously, I still have the little low power torch that came with the GP mount.

For eyepiece caps, one might postulate the existence an "anti-magpie" which covets dull or preferably black objects, and seeks them by night. Replacing the dull ones by brightly coloured ones should help (also makes them easy to find).

Magpies! I hadn't thought of that. And those with a penchant for hats no doubt!
