I can see

After years of having trees blocking my south east horizon my neighbour has finally trimmed them to fence height so I can now see that area of sky.(to bad it,s cloudy)
Amazing how small things can make your day in this hobby.
So to my neighbour

Better invite him/her round to have a look through the scope. If he/she is suitably impressed, then you can encourage them to keep outside lights off at night as well!

ps. I had to pay to clear my view - the trees were in my backyard

pps. say hi to Bundy for me - my home town!

That is terrific news.
Congratulations.

LOL. My old horse is called "Bundy". Named for the brew not the town.

Hi Eric

Bundy says hi we miss you.
Regarding lights my neighbours are usally in the dark so to speak by 9pm
but if you remember Across the Waves sports club their floodlights are a different story but they go off by 11 pm.

all the best

Manny

Good stuff Manny, I suppose a whole new region of the sky has now opened up for you.

Cheers
