FYI these are in PC Currys for €99.99 - the amazon deal works out to be €90.86 (perhaps plus postage). I'm going to head up there as I want to try them out first

So far as I know this scope here is well regarded in the beginner bracket and is a comparable price:

I've been close to pulling the trigger on it myself a few times over the years. I'm the farthest thing from an expert so definitely do some research.

I bought the Asus Zenbook from Currys and it was delivered yesterday. I only had it on for a little while yesterday, but first impressions for anybody who is thinking of buying it:
- Build quality is absolutely top drawer. I knew it would be good, but was surprised by how good it is
- Lovely screen
- Speakers are pretty decent for laptop speakers, but tinny when turned up load
- Keyboard is lovely to type on
- Being able to use the trackpad as a numeric pad is really handy. If you press the top right corner of the trackpad, it lights up a display to show the numeric pad
- The backlight didn't work on the keyboard initially, but as Windows was cycling threw downloading and installing updates, one of them must have been the drivers for it, as it began working after a restart
- I can't comment on performance yet as I only had it on for a short time and it was installing so many updates that it was running a bit slow. Once I have all updates installed over the next few days, I will get more of an idea of it
- Overall, very happy so far

Any one know the reason a lot of products are unavailable to be delivered to Ireland or even Northern Ireland anymore. Items I have previously ordered to Parcel Wizard are all showing as not available to ship to Northern Ireland. I have tried countless different brands and all only deliver to mainland UK. Items such as Powerbanks and even Ear Phones wont deliver here any more. Its incredibly frustrating and making me reconsider even having Prime anymore, and that's coming from ordering from Amazon at least once a week via Parcel Wizard

Bought some wifi plugs last night and they wouldnt ship to Ireland, very frustrating having to pay Parcel Wizard when you already have Prime
