Roland's Amateur Astronomy Page
One of my main hobbies, Astronomy, has really taken off recently because I now have a decent telescope. Binoculars are also very effective for Astronomy, and I use 2 pairs. I also joined the Bristol Astronomical Society in 2000. Right ; a picture of Meade's 8 inch LX90 GPS LNT which I use in Sardinia.
