Others will add more I am sure.
Best you can do is to come up to Mangrove Mountain Pony Club tonight.
Its close. Its free. And you will see and learn heaps.
the directions are in a sticky at the top of the Star Parties thread.
Hope to see you there  |
Thanks for that and thanks for letting me know about the club, unfortunately can't make it tonight because of a mates bucks night but I'll definitely attend other events in future.
I must say though how helpful this forum is for a beginner like me. I bought my scope knowing nothing and because of this site and the friendly yet informative replies on here I am having a great time with it.
