Hello :)
Just saying hello to you fine ppl, old astronomer (last did it 30 odd years ago), now trying to get up and running again, and finding things have changed somewhat! - computers ? Really ?
Anyway just wanted to say if anybody is around the Northern beaches and wants to chat astro gear and dark sites I'd be all ears :D

Thanks
John

Ps: it's my fault the sydney skies are rubbish this week , I got a new mount 3days ago - sorry guys.

Hi John,
Welcome to IceInSpace :welcome:

Maybe you can try to come to an observing night at Mangrove Mountain.
(See Star Parties forum)
Some people from Sydney Newcastle Central Coast and Lake Macquarie will make you welcome and love to chat Astro (and other).
Lots of experience with different scopes happy to share.

Enjoy your second Innings ! :thumbsup:

Welcome John, I think you will find that there are lots of us who have followed the same path. Astronomers in our youth, back for a second go. Dive in, it is loads more fun the second time around.
John
