That's good news, I haven't used it in years... The last place we lived in London didn't have a view of the sky then when I unpacked the tripod in Oz it had snapped!
Annoying... Also too bulky and fragile to carry around, wish I'd got a refractor or a pair of good binoculars instead...
Well you have to start somewhere, all the advice I read touted binoculars hard. I ignored it and went on for heavyweight when binoculars would have been a better fit. Over a decade I've got to the point where a heavy tripod and large scope are now a better option.
