All responses gratefully received. Neil What is the diameter of the objectives? Magnification? Mass? Did you get a look through them? Did you ask to? Did they feel like good value? Strangely, you have just given me one of those moments where I've been reminded, by seeing your post, of a dream I had last night. I get that quite a lot. In this dream, I was evaluating a pair of cheapish 70mm diameter objective binoculars with a girl, not sure if my sister or a girlfriend, by looking through them at half-arm's-length, holding them both ways round, to assess prism size, baffling, etc. (I'm no expert, though.) Strange coincidence! Another dream I had later, just before waking up for the last time, was very powerful. I watched a big passenger plane very low and nearby outside, on a street, turn, lose control, and nosedive into some houses on the next street to me. It was very vivid. At first, the plane had canards at the front, but that notion seemed to vanish from the dream shortly after it had crashed. I hope it wasn't a premonition! Fortunately I don't really believe in them!

All responses gratefully received. Neil -- P.S. Please remove .nospam from the address to reply I've got a breaker 998 13x70. I bought them as they were dirt cheap on ebay, and I wanted to practise using ebay. They are total rubbish - you can have them if you like; there was a thread about them here which I joined in after getting them I think the're far eastern, base purely on the badge which is a map of the world with the Pacific seaboard in the middle Your call, but suggest you walk away Mike R |

Martin Medication, Martin, medication, don't forget now... What? Don't you ever see something during the day, or hear something, and suddenly remember a dream you had about whatever-you-saw the night before? I get it more than once a week, I'd say. ANYWAY, THAT'S EASY FOR YOU TO SAY. BUT WHICH ONES? THE PINK CYLINDRICAL ONES? THE PINK ROUND ONES? THE BLUE MINI-PILLS (NO, THEY AREN'T VIAGRA!) THE GREEN-AND-WHITE CAPSULES? THE LITTLE ORANGE CAPSULES? THE BLUE BOMBS? SO MANY. SO MANY!!! S O M A N Y ! Martin |
