Thankyou for the warm welcome guys,
My mum promised (she would intergect otherwise) she would buy me a telescope, but apparently $1000+ is ridiculous for a telescope, I suppose ignorance is bliss in some circumstances.. No, Chris, unfortunately your hazardous guess is incorrect, Hydra is not my favourite constellation (is that a recurring theme for newbies?). I am split between Serpens (as it contains NGC 6611 - Eagle Nebula) and Scorpius (as it contains NGC 6334 - The infamous Cat Paw Nebula). As currently all of my funds are engaged into my Herping obsession, it will take me (if I tried) maybe 6 months to save up for the beauty my eyes are set on.
Oh and don't worry, I am quite "buff" so I don't think the 12" will be too much trouble for me.
