Which room in the house would it be commonly found in? Guess: Some form of incense burner? You aren't allowed two questions at once, even if you label one of them 'guess'. It is not any form of incense burner. I should have used a full-stop on the second one instead of a question mark - I was tryin...

Guess: Some form of incense burner?

Does the object in question have a function, or is it purely decorative?

Is it a name for a form of log sculpture (given your recent garden activities)?

Is it anything to do with art?

Perhaps it is the name for a new tool used for detecting forgeries of some kind?

Is it some type of fungal growth, perhaps in a certain shape? (Such as could form on the neck of old ullaged bottles)?

Not that. It is a tangible thing that has three dimensions.

Is it a word for a very VERY small penis?

Is it a particular style of mark, or method of making such?

Boa Vista. Correct. The Port house is Offley, who produce Offley Boa Vista , CSI:Miami includes a character Natalia Boa Vista , and Boa Vista was the name of a German literary magazine published until 1983 ("old" simply as in "not current" since publishing ceased 30 years ago). ...

No, not font related.

The connection with Miami does indeed relate to CSI:Miami, though this is not itself the connection.

New question: What is the connection between a Port house, Miami, and an old German literary magazine?

But like the goat, this is an animal that has always had a great deal of mythology around it. I once had to mark a dissertation in which the student had written about the artist Joseph Beuys ... In the basement of the floor of the Rene Block Gallery in Berlin, Beuys positioned himself on the floor ...

I'm guessing you have at least an 8" tube to go with that? (Yeah, yeah, double-entendre guy) I have had second thoughts and have ordered one of these to test the step-up in size. I decided that going from 5" to 12" in one go would be challenging for any man so have gone for the inter...

I'm not disagreeing about '92, nor trying to restart a '91 vs '92 debate right now.

Pan, you just want the square corners so you can line them all up precisely, admit it!

I'm guessing you have at least an 8" tube to go with that? (Yeah, yeah, double-entendre guy) Not yet. I am building up the bits and bobs and then going for one of these when the bonus arrives 88) veeeery nice; straight to 12" with goto and tracking. It could be high-dynamic-range CCDs nex...

1991 should not have been, and wasn’t.

Bit harsh on '91? Will take a bit more time to see, but seems 83-ish in quality to me at the moment (91/92 split aside).

Anyone into numerology would be worried; '94 is the only year ending in 4 which was a general declaration in the last 100 years (unless 24 was? I know the RP24 was good); years ending in 9 don't generally do well. Nostrophil says 2014 will not be a general declaration, but looks forward to being sp...

The box currently contains 4 x Celestron X-Cel LX's, 3 x Skywatcher Plossls, 1 x Celestron Omni Plossl, 3 x Barlow lenses, 1 x Seben Zoom lens and a range of filters. Roughly equivalent £££ to a case of Warre 1970 :? oosh, that's quite a collection; I'm guessing you have at least an 8" tube to...

Heh, I wasn't suggesting that your *other* eyepieces would not be high quality too

Decided what you're going to go for? Or will it require the building of a new shed/garage with sliding/glass roof first?

It is difficult to find pictures that look exactly like what you see through the scope because all of the images are either blurry like mine or heavily processed. The closest I could find was this , but what I see is brighter and the bands on Jupiter more distinct. Based on that, it sounds like the...

It also forces your finger to the slot point, which may not naturally be where your fingers would lie.
