Test1-Part One(2)

I've always been an amateur astronomer and started building my own telescopes when I was ten.

After working as an engineer at WAC, it seemed quite natural to start my own telescope company, Hinde Instruments.

To start with, the company imported telescopes and sold them by mail order, but by nineteen seventy-seven, the company was making its own telescopes.

Almost overnight, we took a huge portion of the market, amateur astronomers being keen to buy our telescopes because of the features they offered. By nineteen eighty-three, sales reached two million dollars.
