…finds favour with family and friends.

Phil lives on the side of a hill overlooking beautiful green pastures in a lovely valley in Wyong Creek an hours drive north of Sydney. He has spent the last seven years converting an old post office into a delightful house for his his wife, three young children and two trusty old dogs.
He runs the Central Coast Traditional Chinese Medicine. He can do everything from driving a tractor or back hoe to delicately placing an acupuncture needle.
Having taken delivery of SDM034, he learnt to use the Argo Navis and ServoCAT in one night and is now keenly waiting for some clear dark moonless skies to do some deep sky observing searching out all those elusive fuzzy nebula and galaxies.

Phil recons: “I am 100% happy, no make that 150% happy with the scope!”
