Here's a shot of me and a mate at the AFL Grand final barbie last year where our team won. I'm the one doing the pole dancing at the back. Not a good shot of me but all I have at the moment.
I like to do a little song and dance routine on occassions.
This is me and my bike at Eucla, just the other side of the WA/SA border. A group of about 10 of us rode from Ceduna to Eucla and back one weekend last year. This photo is not long after we arrived (note the warm glass of scotch & coke on the seat). It was a bloody hot ride back on Sunday, especially around Nullarbor to Yalata, but the views from the clifftops were fantastic.
Thought I'd start off here with a pic of myself - I was going to post one of me stood by my scopes, but it's a bit of a weener compared to all the 18" dobs and 16" LX200s http://ukastroimaging.co.uk/forums/i...n_rolleyes.gif
So... this one was taken at a recent meet some of the members of UKAI attended - I'm Andy Ellis (drunk - those that know me would say this was just the usual state of affairs) next to me is Rob, the founder of UKAI, next to him Mikey Deegan or Mr Y-Fronts to his mates and at the back is Potzy. Me and a couple of the other site members drove 250miles through gale force winds/ flooding and powerouts (impossible to find a bacon sandwich... http://ukastroimaging.co.uk/forums/i...s/icon_eek.gif ) to be in on the drinking session - serious dedication http://ukastroimaging.co.uk/forums/i.../icon_cool.gif 250 miles probably doesn't sound like much, here?
I'm short sighted with astigmatism ( I'm never without my specs ), so please take a Nikko pen, draw circles around my eyes, and that is what I look like.
Here I am ready to take the new 12" Dob outside, second night of viewing the nebula in the saucepan, the moon, Jupitor and moons and Saturn. These where the only things I recognised but the rest of the sky was awesome - my journey begins!!
I wondered where the wine would go and that little holder on the side of the base is perfect!!!!
