    A solar telescope? Are they looking for the sun? I know where it is, I'll show them for £50!

    I don´t think they do 'tours' as such but I am sure they have a visitors centre which explains what the telescopes are and how they are used.

    Went to the opticians today. Walked into the counter, geezer said "I think you are a bit short sighted"
    I said "outside now"
    See that up there its the sun, do you know how far away that is, 150million KM that is, how feckin far do you want me to see.

    I know where Europe is, and its an effing long walk from Tenerife. Maybe the Falklands are in Europe too, and Bahamas.
