In the words of Britney Spears....

"Opps, I did it again...."

Walked into bintel this morning inquiring about the planetary camera, thinking I'd spend maybe $500/600, $1150 later and i have the ex display model Orion ED102 sitting next to me on the car seat and a rather lovely book on messier objects.

Thanks Michael, you are a master at extracting money from my wallet. I'm banning myself from the store.

Not quite sure how I'll get this one past the little lady, so it might just have to sit in the hall cupboard for a while.

Oh yeah, you can blame me for the clouds over sydney today.

Things could get rather "messier" if you don't breach this to SWMBO in the correct and tactful manner!!!!
Your diplomatic skills will have to be sharp for this one!!!

Thankfully my last visit to Bintel was reasonably harmless as I was there just to pick up a book, however that simple exercise turned into a twenty minute conversation with Mike Top blokes all of em there
