That's great to hear! When I say I am losing interest, I think it’s more a case of simply being upset, as I never realized how much I would actually miss star gazing. Usually its only for a week or so, but yea!...of late I am wondering what I can do whilst the weather decides to keep my scopes at bay. Now that you guys have lifted my spirits, I may look into soaking and rinsing my Dobs mirrors. Boy I miss those sights.......there is just so much I am yet to see.
Thanks for the encouragement......chin up 
Ps thanks Glen........over my download limit and still waiting for that page to load...thanks for the link.
