Astronomy Gift Ideas for under £25 or $30
Amateur astronomers can be tricky people to buy a gift for, especially if you want it to be a surprise. In this video I look at 5 items that you might consider. They cost no more than around £25 or $30 and I think most astronomers will find them useful, interesting or fun.
Here are a few links to the items described in the video:

I have not been paid by any of the makers of these products, these are just my own opinions.
This is a different kind of video to my normal efforts, so please humour me if it isn't your cup of tea.
Thanks for watching & Clear Skies.
