well Its collecting the dust in the garage really good! Stoopid rain and clouds... typical!!!!

Have used it twice. Have put a piggy back mount on it now. had a quick play doing piggy backing.. however i want to get a faster appeture lens... probably a 50mm f1.8.. (im going to see if i can borrow a friends though). (http://photos.zethos.org for my piggybacked pics). The full pics look much better then the ones uploaded. I will have to get some printed one day!

This weekend I think I will pull it out, and update the software, and add some stuff i want to look at into the program, and get a general feel for it. Have been too busy in the mean time.. graduated uni, and applying for grad jobs take ages to do all that stuff and having family down aswell! so *fingers crossed* for clear skies and a chance to play.. and even if i can have one night clear sky.. please be sat night! *pray to the LX200 gods* the LX200 gods are pretty good to me!

either "Moo-Mamma" or just "Reg" short for "Reginald". Yeah I know it's a bloke's name and she's a cow, but I like Reg. I knew a budgie called Reg...

Late, but at least it's on-topic.

mmm... space related... that probably eliminates 'moo-mamma' and 'reg', unfortunately...

Maybe we could name a constellation after her. We already have Canis Major, the 'big dog'. How about Vacca Major, the 'big cow'. Remembering that in Latin a 'v' is pronounced as a 'w'...

...so wacca major. The brightest star in this constellation would be Alpha Vaccae Majoris. Has a nice ring to it. We could give it the common name of Vingius, instead of Sirius.
