Dave's been fortunate enough to not only stay at my gaff once in a while but even look through my scopes! ;-)

Matthew,

I really wish you the very best of luck with the scope. Kinda sad seeing it go but at the same time good seeing it going into the hands of someone who'll put it to good use. I really enjoyed using that scope and hope you get some same kick from it as I did!

If you ever have questions about it, feel free to drop me a pm or give me a buzz.

Have fun!

I guarantee you ill have fun! Just seeing the axes move by a touch of a button excites me! :o It must be sad to see it go! all the memories and views! :cry: But then aagain you now have a 12" and a nice camera on the way! :D Thanks so much again! ill put it to great use! Believe it or not i had only looked through an 8" scope once before buying this so EVERY view apart from the moon and saturn will be new to me! Its like my own space Exploration! 8)

We shall not cease from exploration
And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. . . .
