Ordered a new telescope was created by lunartic_old
Hi all

I have just ordered a William Optics Zenithstar 80 package from Adorama, the same package is available from Green-Witch, but even adding on the tax I'll have tp pay I'll save about €140. :D

So when the foul weather gets worse, :twisted: please be gentle with the hate mail :cry: .

And the end of all our exploring
Will be to arrive where we started
And know the place for the first time. . . .

Paul,

Out of respect for our fellow amateurs, we do NOT do such things two weeks before a total lunar eclipse. :evil:

Many congrats! :lol:

Thanks people

I know that new scope syndrome affects the local weather, but I didn't know that it also has an effect thousands of kilometres away in Athens :twisted: Perhaps it's a global phenomenon.
