Hope the Ethos don't bring bad weather!
Buy more orthos to compensate for this impending disaster!

Where did you get the box from? Last I checked with Al, he didn't allow me to buy the box without the eyepiece ....

Ah.... Andrew! Just as we have expected....
Why is there no photo of what is inside the box? Surely it is not just a sticker right?

Andrew, just give the eyepiece to me. It'll then be "second hand" and will not cause cloudy skies. Problem solved!
