It's a tough game

You must have had a night like this. I decided I would spend a while peering in my drainpipe, and wheeled it into position.

The telescope fought me every inch of the way:

flat batteries in the laser
mirror centre spot falls off
flat batteries in the Argo
encoder error on azimuth
printer died when I tried to print a few star charts

Finally, I managed to outsmart the dumb @# piece of metal, glass and plastic. Victory!!

I looked up. Yes, the cloud had rolled in.

*Sigh*
