Seriously, that doesn't sound good mate. I'm all for the occassional smashing but not 'most of my days'.

Since I can't observe from home I only ever get two opportunities per month to observe. Weather being what it is I'm lucky if half of the weekends are clear. So I took up a second hobby which is not weather-dependant. In my case I took up bass guitar. I had fiddled with one when I was at school but hadn't touched one for 30 years until about 18 months ago. I'm in a bluegrass 'band' (I use the term loosely) and we have done a couple of gigs. So far I've never had to decide between the band and astronomy but you never know....
