It was quite a comfortable cruise in my BMW 635CSi Ric. Nothing compared to 1999 though, then I lived in Mooloolaba Queensland and worked at ACT Water Police a 3000klm drive every 3 weeks.
I have now given up work to focus on skiing, as the ski season is drawing to a close I will be learning all I can about astronomy.
I picked up a new scope today, thanks to a very generous deal with 'astroboy', I now have a mint condition Vixen R200SS with illuminated finder, extn tube, tele-extender, t mount, eyepieces etc sitting on my coffee table.
I have also sourced a Canon 50D and a Baader BCF filter to play with.
Now looking for a mount to suit.
