  1. Excellent news
  2. Hoping it's April fools but I fear not. What you can get away with in the name of 'fighting terror' is genuinely scary stuff. No longer the most open country in the world, many used to say we were the last natn with true freedom of speech. Not so now.
  3. Well, glad we got that performance out of the way before next week. May not be a terrible thing in the end, no chance of complacency setting in. Did bring back memories all too quickly though
  4. He did, he shut his eyes
  5. Never mind lambert , anyone any idea about Richardson?
  6. Guly stationary in the box then runs back and lucky not get a yellow
  7. the embeded iplayer interview in that article is wortha listen though - 'We have spent no where near as much as we thought we would to get to this point'
  8. Cheers mate
  9. Are You Andy D'Urso?
  10. without a buyer they will not survive the close season - they have admitted they are limping by at a time when there is gate revenue and money from the FL.
  11. would you look at that... already draped in red and white
  12. Yep the LX Meads are all on Alt Az mounts which is fine for visual astronomy and taking solar system shots but for long exposures the field rotates so you need a wedge - to be honest you need to guide the scope to get really long exposures - my horsehead nebula shots are 10 minute exposures the best you would get on a wedge would be 60 seconds I'd guess and the field of view would be small The problem with astronomy is there is no one scope for every purpose. My 80 mm ED imaging scope would be useless to look at much stuff through but it is a 'quick' scope with great optics and is great for photography For planets and moon and visual I have a celestron 9.25" all of these I mount on a sysnscan HEQ5 pro It don't come cheap, but it is a cool hobby
  13. What it does do is dispel that article by Harry Harris last week that ' all was well and the future was secured'
  14. Such a shame those two fell out - I read that the last live performance of 'that sketch' was done with genuine hatred between the two of them. Sadly not on DVD or even on the small sky channels. There were some cracking programmes around then Big Train and Absolutely were also standouts for me.
  15. F*ck it can't get the embed to work http://youtu.be/XXMapqiDsqs Love it
  16. The lx will be superb for planets and the moon, you may get some short nebula shots but not so much the long exposures. You'll see some great stuff throug there
  17. Thanks bud , that means a lot. Got into it after playing online with my nipper and was go smacked you could take images like that in your own garden. It ain't cheap but it's all doable. Amazing what's up there. Always thought that sort of stuff only came from expensive probes
  18. Let them scrabble for 2nd. We will not lose the lead now
  19. Lol fourth official has just tweeted the dates of the play offs FAO the west ham fans
  20. Sam has his excuse then, jolly good
  21. Boyd goes close. C'mon
  22. 'much of the threat west ham have provided this evening has been in the air' Gasp
