Maybe a low-profile focuser for my Dob so I can use my Lumicon filter holder for viewing Mars.

And if there's any money left over, a HEQ5 Pro to stop Mars drifting out the field of view.

Turkish Delight Chocolate, ummm . . . that'll about do it.

Oh, and Cheryl says the tent I got to replace the one my dogs chewed up counts as a Chrissy Prezzie too

And watch my kids faces when they open thier prezzies. That's the best part

The ability to only need an hour's sleep a night from now on!


Oh, and a DSLR but our 23 year old fridge is looking decidedly unhealthy - I think my DSLR is on the backburner for a year

Had you considered fitting a barlow element to the nose of the filter holder to change its focus position? Some barlow elements have the same thread as filters.

My wife was going to buy me a mySky, but I bought one as soon as they arrived, much to her dismay. Now I have to think of something else...
