Thanks . . .

Astrofest

European AstroFest once again took place at Kensington Conference and Events Centre on 5th and 6th February 2010.

Orion Optics UK were pleased to be at the Show and wish to thank, most sincerely, all those who stopped by our stand for either just a look, to ask for advice and indeed to all those who purchased telescope systems or accessories at special prices on the day.

Business was brisk on both Show days and it was good to interact with customers and gain feedback.

Particular interest was directed towards our ODK, AG and CT Carbon Tube Telescopes.

Hope to see you all again next time at ASTROFEST!
