Ian it is very possible the tall building over the road was radiating stored heat and effecting the view. A pair of Binos focused on the building edge or on something behind it may well have shown a waviness to the atmosphere around it.
I had the same problem tonight with Jupiter but that is because it is so low from down here at 41deg South, and it is off over the ocean too with about a kilometre of houses and street releasing heat into the air.. The best view was in the Wide 25mm ep and anything stronger was a disappointment.
I know that most viewing from my verandah is going to be a bit disappointing because I am in town (small town but they have managed to bitumen it thoroughly and over illuminate). Just one of those things.
