Welcome Grandpanancy don't worry they're all mad except me.

[toetoe (Peter)]

And me.) Welcome Grandpanancy.

[Astroman (Andrew Wall)]

I am still going through the tests to see if I am mad. They told me if I keep on here I am bound to get mad sooner or later.

Hi Grandpanancy. Enjoy your stay.

[grandpanancy]

Thanks for the welcome everyone!

A bit about myself hey?? Hmmm... well I'm a single male capricorn -- OOPS wrong website for that information!

In all seriousness, I'm relatively new to astronomy and have been lurking about the forums gathering info for a while.

I've just spent a rather large sum of money (for a student anyway) on a rather small telescope. This went against almost all the advice I had read to go for a dob. I am extremely happy with the result however.

In a moment I will post some pictures in the equipment forum.

I am from Brisbane and would be interested at some stage to come along to any local group observing sessions.

Cheers,

Dan
