It was really great chatting with a bunch of you at the show yesterday, and I hope anyone who couldn't make it down enjoys this video tour Grant and I put together hastily before the doors opened. We had a big stand this year, so it's quite a long video so maybe grab a drink before hitting the play button. P.s I've also uploaded another copy of this video to the FLO channel here: www.youtube.com/@firstlightoptics1903/videos Clear skies!
Thanks so much for making this mate!! - I couldn't make this one so it's really nice to be able to see it like this :-) Awesome to see Grant too and what a superb job he did talking us through all the gear! :-D Well done!
I have some silent footage of me quickly zooming around the show just after finishing the above video and before the doors opened to the public. I had to be really quick with it so it's probably better as a RUclips short.
Hello Flo people 👋It were nice catching up with you all, Dave Eagle, yourself & Daz nearly sold me that FMA 180 but I did resist just!! simply due to my operation date coming up 🙁 Hope to see some of you at Kelling Heath star party in a couple of weeks.
What a fantastic display from FLO, shame I couldn’t make it this year, but if it’s like that next year, I’ll be there! The Celestron Origin looks very exciting and looking forward to seeing the parallelogram mount on the website.
That's Orion Optics UK (OOUK), still very much in business. I have one of their ODK 12s in my obsy on a (No longer made alas) ASA DDM 85, and yes it's a beast, and so is the DDM.

I hope you have a branch in Iraq, as there are many astronomy enthusiasts in Iraq.
