Had a clear window for about an hour just now. I upgraded my set up to include a chair, which made a world of difference

Just used the binoculars tonight, which i think are nikon monark 5 8x42. I lingered on the southern pleiades and omicron velorum cluster, both looked nice, the latter in a much darker part of the sky.
I took my glasses off and used the focus on the bins to overcome my rubbish eyesight and i am glad to report that it was a much better experience
Was sipping on a single barrel buffalo trace whiskey, starting to feel good to have something warm.


In other news, I've got tracking numbers for all parts of the new kit, should all arrive tomorow and hopefully I'll get far enough with setup in the arvo to take a look at something and report back this time tomorrow
