Don't worry mate - don't feel guilty - a budget 3 week trip around Europe would set you back at least an AP1600 WITH encoders plus misc other critical accessories.

PS: Looks beautiful!!
He he thanks Marcus...I woke up during the night and the realisation that there was this dream mount, standing like a bastion of astronomical craftsmanship, on the table in the spare room..compelled me to get up and have a look, I managed to refrain from hugging her though ..not obsessed at all...

The mount looks beautiful, a lifetime investment, unlike fleeting 3 weeks in Europe he he. BTW, I spent most of my life in Europe and IMO it is not that awesome as they make it look in ads - Australia is heaps better
That's kinda what I said to her (..back, as she walked out of the room ) Slaws....buuuuut it fell on deaf ears....

Mike
