Woopeee !!!!

It's here !!!! : D

Got home and found 3 boxes on the loungeroom floor waiting for me .

Opened the big box and found a beast in there , OMG it's a monster !!! it's huge.

I haven't lifted it out of the box yet , I might need a crane .

The dovetail adapter fits my dovetails (that's a good start).

The tripod looks pretty solid .

Can't see any 12VDC power cables so far , maybe they are under the GEM .

The guy next door is still not back , took 5 big brawny cops 3 hours to subdue him , and they had to sedate and restrain him to get him out of his house (after breaking in) ,and he's in the looney bin (hopefully they'll never let him out again).
Peace is bliss , and a dark back yard is nice too , too bad the weather has been awful.
His neighbours on the other side have been getting stalked and threatened by him and they too have now taken an AVO out on him.

Bit of luck he'll take the hint and go away if he ever gets released from the looney bin.
