Technical officer in a small telecoms company providing two-way radio network services and data services via wireless and microwave.
Sometimes my impromptu travels take me to lovely dark skies in the country and I wish I had an ultra portable setup I could keep with me in the car. At the moment that consists of a pair of 7x50 binoculars.

To work as an astronomer would make it well, work !
I just like to look at "cool stuff" and enjoy it
