Hi,

Sorry, have not been at the PC today until now.

The winner is..............St. Ives!!

Yes, we walked down to this lovely spot as the tourist buses are not allowed in (a good thing too) and enjoyed ourselves with Devonshire tea and a bit of shopping. We were amused because no shopkeeper would accept the Scottish notes we had (muttering things about "furriners") and we had to call in the local bank and exchange it for real money. The teller said it was customary there, and ran back generations. It has only been 260 yrs since Culloden after all.

Doug, pm me and I'll post you a set of Bunnings main mirror springs if you like, they go well as a replacement in GSO and Bintel dobs, especially the big ones (I see you have a refractor though).

Cheers
