Thank you that is really helpful, managed to get the moon tonight and looks brilliant, craters really stand out more. So do i need to use the finder scope at all? it takes me a while but i eventually got the moon into sight, i take it the larger scope is what you need once you have the object in line? I don't think out of my loft window i can see Jupiter/Venus, are they obvious to find in the sky? i can see Mars as it shines an orange colour but again no luck magnifying it - doesn't really show any detail versus say the Moon (unless I am doing it wrong which is a high possibility).

yea haven't up it this tax year which is stupid of me, will do it for next year

strange question - anyone any good with telescopes? i bought one off Amazon the other day, it was £130 but it doesn't exactly show the stars/planets in much closer up detail than not using it? i haven't tried it on the moon yet as was last week when it wasn't visible much. Do i have to invest in stronger magnification lenses? this is the one i purchased.. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Telescopes-Astronomy-Refractor-Telescope-Telescopio/dp/B08T7844LT/ref=sr_1_4?adgrpid=159572245094&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.HjAMcRzwuLjk24zUUYFu5bD8R-X75dZkG0YmkDbHQupf3R9keoQelvMinDVnkbdDkE7T4KUwiFUor10eKyIEAdbtQmFIT3QHorzWn6cqA1_jFvb5PUcgUfaJV7ZpAbFClYKvSFjFbRgWG09noiO_BQBWQkBogD94I5qp6sKixGA0-_gpnleyVNAGZBE63Ah1lj0iCPuPSmYRdDl_8XygZPVlwuG1xK7HArUKDNIjtTc.chpU136pNyqOjPhXiwKyoMM6Rm7Tfd3fPvoom8RCEEY&dib_tag=se&gad_source=1&hvadid=696177792843&hvdev=c&hvexpln=69&hvlocphy=9219239&hvnetw=g&hvocijid=14164294393252200244--&hvqmt=e&hvrand=14164294393252200244&hvtargid=kwd-305972965350&hydadcr=18511_2257244&keywords=telescope%2Bamazon&mcid=2fd03b56af1a3fbb9c9721ed7dce1ba8&qid=1741174155&sr=8-4&th=1 it has really good reviews so was surprised it wasn't very good, it also comes with a small scope attached on the side with a cross in it, no idea what that is for.

i have some money i would like to put into some investment, not really interested in Crypto as over my head and i know it behaves erratically. Any advice for a newbie? at the minute it is just in my savings account doing nothing. I have max'd out 20k in an ISA this year

my Tesla M3 goes in for repairs today due to someone hitting into it, my replacement car - an Audi Etron GT! actually can't wait, they can take their time with the repairs... anyone driven one?

any recommendations for estate agent based around Charnwood who are actually good? we are looking to have our house valued this week/next week and looking to get 3 different opinions.

I watched my partner doing the Leicester 10k at the weekend. Its really interesting as you get a pool of elite's doing 31-38 mins, then you get a small chunk doing sub 45. Then you almost get a but of a gap and get a flood of people doing 50mins - 1 hour. Then again a lot doing 1hr - 1-10. Think it shows how tough doing sub 50 is. In my opinion you have to be well above average to be putting in 45-49 minute times in a 10km if you take an average slice of the UK population

strength training really important, i have made notable differences training legs in the gym once a week but try and do single leg exercises i.e. lunges, Bulgarian split squats etc. then some calf raises, squats, single leg hamstring work

I run it in 45-47 and i will be doing 50 under, you will also definitely get runners who think they will do sub 50 but actually do 55 my ego will take a tanking though as will be near the back.

booked Lisbon for my partners 30th, heard only good things? any recommendations?

always said biggest impact will be don't attend the man u game. You just know some wrong'uns will sell their ticket to Utd fans

Any other fan base the pitchforks would be out and be massive protests. So placid

Surely, he gets the boot after this. I’ve never seen anything like it, sack him and sack all the players.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 this is unbelievable. Couldn’t make it up

He wants the sack, there is no other explanation

This must be the most unlikeable Leicester team in history

Wow Vestegaard. Just unreal tbh

Why is our away always have an average age of 60, nothing against it but just wild. Any other away fans mostly blokes a bit younger 🤣

How much shall I pay you?

Notts v arsenal just constant wave of pressure, no idea how forest are 3rd they offer nothing. This has 1-0 forest written all over it Chris Wood goal

Why would you off load winks or mavididi? They were crucial in our promotion last season

putting our house on the market next three weeks just getting it sorted, not a lot out there atm we have seen. Loads of new build which we aren't interested in. Houses for sale on that new Broadnook estate by the A6 which claims to be Rothley but isn't really, Rothley going to become a big town soon. Some 3 beds pushing 400k! Will pick up next few weeks i recon

I might be an ostrich as well but I’m not judging him based on this years results due to the mess he has been given, but I will judge him with a full summer behind him, more coaching staff and hopefully a good season next year in the championship. I don’t hate the idea of him being our manager next season

Chris wood AGAIN WTF is going on he’s been pony for about 8 years it’s doing my head in

There is a chance Forest get CL, We get relegated and Cov get promoted. #KPFC in
