Need a hobby
Refrigeration is taking over my life and I like it but to keep myself sane I must find a hobby,I,ve narrowed it down to cooking or astronomy.Before I start I like to have the best equipment but a new kitchen and appliances is a little expensive.So asronomy it is.I,ve been looking at the sky watcher astronomical telescopes,if anyone could give me some advice on what model would best suit a beginner I would be very gratefull

Hi mark,
When do you find the time?
You are not one of these 9 to 5 people, are you ?
I agree, its a lovely game, Have you tried it on sand?
I'll stick to mine -- refrigeration.

Hi Mark,
That avatar was taken some 10 days ago near the red sea, Camels are Egyptian I believe.

Re: Need a hobby
My hobby is my motorbikes.
with them being oldish two strokes, they need appx 1 hour's maintainance to every hour riding.
that's what i tell the wife anyway.
i can tinker in my garage for hours and hours. the petrol fumes do wonders for clearing your head of the days nonsense.
cheers

Hi Bernard,
When I come to think about it, England is not the place for such a hobby, the sky are 95% of the time covered with clouds.
Golf seems to be ok.

Re: Need a hobby
Hi Bernard,
What donkeys? Where?
These are camels in the picture.
I do not live by the sea but a 120 KM west, in the middle of nowhere, a bit to the left.
Our sky are clear at nights for over 300 nights a year.
Bring your telescope next time you come.
