Nice scope and nice cats! Just make sure they don't mark your new toy as theirs like my cats do

I must have missed you in Bintel. I was in there Saturday morning. The boys told me I was only their 3rd customer that day, you may have been one of the other 2!
I also am partly responsible for any crappy weather as I picked up a 6mm Delos there!

Hope the skies cxlear and we hear some results.

I assume that Victoria will now be blessed with cloudy skies for at least a fortnight?

Hey Paula nice scope. Would like to hear what you think of the 12" in comparison to the 10", if the skies ever clear that is. Have decided that I'm the 'less is more kind' of observer and am trying to decide between 10/12" dobbie one of these days to go along with my 6" frac.
Cheers Matt
