Hi All for the last time

Hi All for the last time
With grate sadness I must say good buy to you all as I am no longer able physical to peruse my hobby, It still remember getting my first telescope when I was 10 years old, it was from a deposable shop it was a 40mm and it cost me 5Pounds and the first thing I looked at turned out to be Jupiter and some of its moons, I was over the Moon when I saw it, but now good buy to it all but I still have the memories

I hope you can still enjoy the forum. There are plenty of armchair astronomers around who enjoy reading the magazines and having a chat.

All the best,
David

Let me just add that as long as the interest continues one can still persue it through other means than just looking through a telescope.

As long my eyes work and I can still look up at the night sky in wonder, I'm happy.
