I have had a keen interest in astronomy and birdwatching , but has time moved on I drifted away . But after recent years and breakdown ( Covid lockdown ) in my mental health I started to watch wildlife again . So I purchased a pair of Greenkat binoculars 8x40s( sold all my telescopes and bins years ago ) from eBay in perfect A1 condition , even the original leather case looks brand new . I was shocked how good they are for the age . Thank you for welcoming on your forum .
