Hey,
Have you managed to move the scope yet, looks like this evening would be a good time to collimate it.

Would love to Dave but I'm
not long home from Croom
and I'm totally exhausted from
the physio..
Thanks very much for the offer.
Maybe sometime next week would
be good.
Cheers Roy

The weather is looking good from Wednesday onwards, so that would a good time to do it and actually get a chance to test it, prove the optics are ok aswell.
All the same, I fully trust the laser, works every time on my own scope, so it should be grand.

Hey Roy,
So any more idea on a time for this, the weather is looking good for testing the collimation of this. Given the current planetary conjunction, I thought you'd be eager to get this done.
