Funny Astronomik advert
Well my ugly mug has appeared on a Weet-Bix box but this has gotta take the cake
The latest Astronomik promotional banner
The display will be 2m high and 1m broad (about life size  ). It will be their main display at all events/fairs/telescope conventions/workshops during the next half year - it's their 10 year anniversary promotion.
I am honoured of course and it is great to see some foreign manufacturers with a good Aussie sense of humour, I hope Gerd Neumann sells lots of his excellent filters (as long as I don't scare them off)
he he he

Exactly what Gerd said, ie if the first thing a person does when approaching his stand is to smile then they start on the right foot! A great philosophy I recon
