Anyway, I'm pretty sure it was Venus, tho obviously the seeing of craters seems unlikely. As Holly said, it must have been "grit".

There is often confusion about what various accessories such as Barlows and filters actually do. Personally, I am not a big fan of barlows. I have had a couple (both good quality Televue ones) and sold them in favour of good quality eyepieces. A really good EP of the power you want will beat a barlowed EP any day in my opinion.
