Title: hello again
Post by: james on Jul 03, 2008, 20:39:46
Hi all

Just thought I would say Hi again, I was a member back in 2002 (ish) however pressure of work and family life took its toll, and I did not have time for the hobby.  I have recently dusted off the old scope and started to take an interest again, it's amazing how easily it is to get hooked again.

I am already hacking my web cam to bits and fitting a telescope adapter, and drolling over various new telescopes and mounts.

Hopefully I will be able to start attending meetings and observing sessions again ( subject to obtaining all the corrected passes from the Boss)

all the best

James

Hi James,

I remember you. I think you were just about to get married or something the last we heard from you.

Good to hear from you and hopefully see you at a meeting or observing session soon.

Me too. You came to the science museum with us IIRC, after seeing the 3D ISS film at the IMAX. Or am I thinking about someone else?
