Thanks everyone for your suggestions. I am thinking of joing the Brisbane Astronomical Society (BAS) so I can get a bit more of an understanding of all things astronomical. I don't pick up my new scope till next week (which won't matter because it will be raining for the next few days anyway).
Just one more question (pardon my ignorance), I get a 25mm and a 10mm eye piece with my telescope, what other eye pieces / filters will I require for decent viewing? I'm not taking photos.
Looking forward to perhaps seeing my first DSO next week!
