Title: Hello from Nick.
Post by: Nick O'Neill on 06-Jan-2010 12:09:10 GMT
My name is Nick and I live in Liverpool. I am waiting to receive a Skywatcher Heritage 130P and this is my first telescope. I bought this scope for my daughter as her Christmas present and I am really looking forward to getting started in Astronomy. I have had some problems with faulty scopes (long story) so hoping this next one is ok.  I have bought the Nightwatch book and also the Starry Night Enthusiast software to help me get started.


I was hoping to come over to Pex Hill tonight but I guess conditions are treacherous over there?

Hi Nick, we will be up at Pex hill tonight so come along, forecast is for clear skies so bring your scope, wrap up warm though.

Wish I could but the replacement did not arrive.  I could use the one thats going back though as long as I am careful or just pop along to say hello.  Might see you all later :)
