Mac,

You have Photoshopped the orange out! Wicked!

Welcome Duncan,
As you can see already, you will be made to feel very welcome, and if you have any questions on astronomy or life in general, this is where to ask them. There are a couple of us up the road in the posh part they call North Chislehurst (Mottingham) and another few in Chislehurst and Petts Wood, so you are not alone, looking at orange or grey skies.
We have Deep Sky Camps (DSC's) every other month, and unoffical camps at intervals between them(basically loads of camps) and this would be a great oppotunity, dare I say it, to look at other members equipment, and the difference in the images that can be seen. 
Well, hopefully you'll pop down to one of the meetings, camps or even the pub in the near future.

Hope to see you soon.

Tony G
