Hi from Berkshire

[Steve_meg]

Hi everyone, although I have posted a few times I thought I'd introduce myself properly.

My names steve and I live in maidenhead berkshire. Just ordered a Sw 250 dobsonian, cheshire eyepiece and moon filter, and got a copy of the practical astronomer. hopefully thats all I need for now, apart from clear skies and learning how to collimate.
