I was in M&S in Manchester yesterday and they had a display set up with
2 telescopes on it. One was a 50x350 refractor for £35 and the second
was an 80x400 refractor for £79. The second had 6mm and 20mm eyepieces,
a table top tripod and a carry case.

Searching on the M&S website I found one of them

but I think they've got a picture of the 50x350 with the specs of the
80x400 because the one I saw was all black.

So are the Science Museum - one for 40 quid, another for a tenner.
They should know better - but I haven't been for 15 years and hadn't
realised how sad the place had become. Astronomy equlas rockets and
space vehicles and that's it matey.
