    Not yet. That will come when we eventually move to the country for dark skies.

    For now I get my fix from NASA, ESA & others. Occasionally we go to the local observatory when they have an open night for something special.

    I've done an introductory course in Astronomy through Swinbourne University online http://astronomy.swin.edu.au/sao/
    and received good marks for it too :)

    Further pursuit of Astronomy will come when I stop working for the man.

    Eve without my own telescope there are full data sets of major scopes like Hubble, XMS, GIA and others on line for astronomers to go data mine. There is also lots of citizen science programs to get involved with if your so inclined.

    If you need to use a scope bigger than you might own, or other types of scopes with specialist filters etc., and your a hobbyist astronomer, you can always book time on the field of global robot scopes here...

    Walking the dogs daily now with partner.

    Setting up a water feature, this is actually fun and relaxing.

    Surfing. Great exercise and a fun way to clear the head.

    Go for a run (or walk if it’s a non training day).
    Drink red wine.
    Listen to music/ Jump on the decks for a mix up.
    Play in my spreadsheets
    Go for a solo meal at a cafe and scribble notes in my ‘thoughts’ book.
    Practice mindfulness.

    I get a lot of 'me' time. I like to:

    Walk and spend time with my dogs
    Play PS4 & computer games
    Internet research (economics and tech)
    Program my home solar power/weather monitor
    Read books
    Watch TV series & movies
    Small house projects

    In short, I'm a home-bound nerdy dog lover!

    I code personal projects and I spend time building retro gaming devices (both these things are related), I find it very relaxing :).

    Then for my job, I code.........

    wait, there seems to be a recurring theme here, lucky me, I found someone to pay me for what I love doing ;)
