A cure for GAS

More humour - a cure for gear acquisition syndrome.

Nice one.

The guy in the clip, Tony Northrop, has the added problem that his wife Chelsea (doing the filming and voice-over) is a photographer too. So they really have no chance of ever getting rid of the G.A.S.

I've got no chance of escaping it either, because my wife insist that I buy a treat or two to balance out the annual Bali holiday she has with a couple of girlfriends.

This year she might just say "Find Another Refractor Telescope..."

(Sorry about that. Apparently my inner schoolboy is still alive and well, after all these years.. )

She may not be quite as enthusiastic if you put this at the top of your list
