Smile Finally - getting my mount tomorrow

Feels like forever, but finally I will be getting a mount for my Meade 12 inch ACF tomorrow. Forecast for Melbourne for the next few weeks is cloud and rain naturally.

Well done chief!

It's an exciting time.

I loved unboxing my G11... made for a great pre-Easter treat!

As you might have seen from my other posts, I got the Celestron CGEM. Few hundred more than the EQ6, but I have no regrets so far...

I was hoping to soon - I was holding out for a new finder scope, but I think i will just use the Telrad from my old C8.

Sincere apologies to all in Melbourne for the antarctic weather I seem to have brought on...
