"The importance of a telescope is not how big it is, how well made it is.
It is how many people, less fortunate than you, got to look through it."

Yup, many members of the public were quite thrilled to peek at Saturn, the Moon, etc. 'Business' was really brisk.
Was nice meeting so many forum members last night, incl Gary (Meade 8' SCT with binoviewer on Porta mount, a super set-up), James Ling (Mewlon 250), Clifford60, KKK26 (APM 4' apo), RLow and wife, and ZongYao. Hope I've not omitted anyone!
Am sure there will soon be new members signing up from last night's crowd, incl one who I have pre-named 'Koala'.

Before I come, I called to check, and I was told no need to bring 15" dob as there were very few people then... so unfortunately some of you missed it.
