Well I bit the bullet, I'm an old softie.
Her birthday is on Friday so if you reply to her other thread please don't tell her what I got her.
First I want to thank everyone for your advice, it was really hard to decide.
I almost went for a small refractor/goto combo, then it was gonna be a dob.
She was saying how she likes the dobs.
In the end, I fell in love with the Lightbridge when I saw it at Bintel on Monday, so I went back yesterday and bought her an 8" Lightbridge deluxe.
If anyone is thinking of buying one, they are beautiful, check em out.
Don, Mike and Mick looked after me exceptionally well.
We set up the truss tube, they collimated it and gave me some tips.
Packed it all back up as it originally was, had a bit of a yarn and I was off.
What can I say about them, in my books they're the best.
I'll post some pics on Friday when she gets her surprise.
Cheers
