I think my nearest society is in Tullamore, which isn't too far, so I might look into getting in touch with them.

Hello folks.
My names Sean and I have been visiting the IFAS site and reading the forum for a while now. I've always been interested in the mysteries of the sky; although I've only recently decided to begin observing for myself. By "observing" I mean investing in some kit.
I'm in my early 20's and I currently study in Liverpool. My hometown is Derry although my parents now live in Donegal. The area they live is pretty rural and far away from any of the dreaded light pollution. With plenty of space, no light pollution and a decent beginners telescope it shouldn't be long until I become familiar with the sky. My main interests up to now have been the moon and the brighter stars. I'm hoping extend this to seeing nebulae and other galaxies once I get started.
The group who post on here seem like regular and decent people. Just my kind of company. If I've got any questions I'll be sure to ask. In the mean time, if anyone from the Northwest knows off any regular astronomy related events...be sure to let me know!
All the best,
Sean
