Astro Muppet Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Hi everyone I'm David and I have recently caught the Astronomy Bug. After buying a Skywatcher Startravel 102, (primarily for nature and watching ships at the coast), I now really enjoy quiet nights in the garden viewing the stars and trying to navigate the various constellations. I am sure I will get good advice on any future expansion of my kit and after reading some of the forum you are a very friendly group. Not sure if you will get many posts from me as I am a bit of a techno novice and have kids and only one computer. Apologies for daft questions I will most likely be asking in the future. David PS Forum name chosen by the kids. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brantuk Posted October 8, 2012 Share Posted October 8, 2012 Hi David and a warm welcome to EMS The only daft question is the one you didn't ask lol. We were all new to the hobby once and we all know how daunting it can be. Just pop up a question thread in the "beginners section" and someone will be along with an answer soon.
