    East Norfolk, Happisburgh advice

    I’m going to be in Happisburgh all week next week. I know Hickling Marsh is nearby so I plan on going down. What’s Round this time of year? I fancy trying to do a dawn or dusk crane watch but I know that’s more of an autumn activity. Any other sites worth looking at? Is the beach any good for...

    Nerja, Andalucia 2024

    I’m heading to Nerja next week primarily for herping but obviously some birding too. It’s a family holiday so suggestions need to be little leg friendly. Any suggestions for good spots? We will have a car but don’t want to be stuck in it for hours. I’m also interested in an ethical boat trip if...

    April Europe destination suggestions

    So my 40th birthday grand trip has been killed by a mortgage renewal on new interest rates. I’m looking for suggestions for warm European destinations with decent birding (reptiles are my number 1 love) which as a general location is fine for having youngish kids along for the ride. Budget is...

    Help with logo identification

    I picked a jacket up in a UK charity shop. This is the logo, does anyone recognise it? The manufacturer (I think) is Peru. At first I thought this was the country of the tour.

    Can anyone identify this logo?

    so possibly nothing to do with the country then?

    Can anyone identify this logo?

    I picked up this jacket in a UK thrift store and wondered if anyone could identify which your firm it is associated with. Googling doesn’t show anything up

    Celestron UK service

    Just a quick update. Celestrons customer service was poor on the communication front, all done via an online ticket system based in the USA but I ended up being asked to post the scope to their UK centre. Had no idea what was going on but today a Sony new scope arrived so credit where its due.

    Allergic reaction to eyecups

    It’s what I figured too, especially as it was one eye only. I definitely don’t have a latex allergy. I’ve cleaned it and now my eye is almost back to normal so I’ll get to play roulette with them at the weekend and see if it happens again!

    Allergic reaction to eyecups

    I’ve tried them for a few minutes and no issue but today was a few hours. The issue only manifested itself a few hours afterwards. I’ll try cleaning them. I don’t know if they have a product mark to identify them so I can avoid just buying the same ones again.

    Allergic reaction to eyecups

    Is this a thing? I’ve recently bought some pre owned Vicory FLs recently serviced and in excellent condition. I’ve done my 1st full day out with them and this evening my eyelid has swollen very badly, I look like I’ve been punched in the head. I have no known allergies and have used Conquests...

    Celestron UK service

    Would either of you be able to suggest a type of glue? All of the repairs contacted have said no. When I place the eyepiece back in situ it works fine, zooms well and is clear. It seems the adhesive has failed and the thread possibly. I’m still waiting to hear from Celestron but if it is a write...

    Celestron UK service

    To be honest I think I’ll go to someone who knows what they are doing. I’ve contacted east coast as I‘ve used them before. Rother contacted Celestron who apparently said a replacement is the only option based upon the same images I posted here, I tried fitting it back in but it seems the thread...
