G'day
I guess I should introduce myself. I've already made a few posts without properly introducing myself, where are my manners?
I'm 41 years old, and have been doing astronomy since 1992. I live in the UK (it's alright, you don't need to pity me, it's a nice country if a bit pricey
) and am an avid deep sky observer. I've made a couple of trips to Oz over the years and I'm planning another - finances permitting - in 2013, which is one reason I joined the forum.
I use a 12" scope for observing but I've got an 18" Dob on order, that should be finished within a few weeks. My observing's a bit curtailed at the moment, thanks to a broken ankle!
Cheers
Faith
