The scope is in and I'm up and running. I'm so glad it's cloudy

Thanks to my helpers who made it back a second week

Most impressive is the Pier I had made to my specific needs from Pegasus Piers. It's a monster! Ron and Peter at Sirius Optics made sure there were plenty of willing helpers to lift it into my van - at around 120Kg, we needed 4!

The dodgy collage from 4 shots demonstrares what a beast it is - remember that's a 14"er on top.

All I need now is a thousand spare hours of tinker-time to get it all tuned in...
