    Hi Richard

    I was under the impression from Joy Heyworth that she was expecting me to contact you/BAA as the funds are coming to the Association & not the estate of her late father? I may be wrong but that was my impression.

    I’m potentially interested in the Meade ETX 125 PE plus eyepieces too. Happy to offer a further £100 on top of the £200 for the refractor & eyepiece(s). Firstly, please advise refractor brand and f/xx please before I can commit. Thanks again!

    Sincerely
    Jonathan Barker – RAS.

    Hi Richard .., just off the phone with Joy Heyworth ref the 80mm ED Apo refractor but she knows v little about it but was happy to chat in general terms… lovely lady!
    I’m really interested in the refractor…. do you know the make? What is the f/xx please as I would be interested in adapting an external H-alpha filter (Daystar?) to it and am happy to offer £200 or more for it unless it has gone already.
    I understand from Joy that you are travelling up on Friday & bringing back the smaller items? Perhaps the refractor too? I’m in Reading Berkshire & Lincolnshire is a bit far for me but not impossible!

    Looking forward to hearing feom you.

    Best regards
