The problem is my northern view incorporates the glow of Brisbane and I only have a narrow window of opportunity through a gap in the trees. That plus the fact that I'm not really sure what I am looking for.

FWIW 17 x 32 sec exposures at ISO 200 taken on 27/4/06 between 11:30 pm & 12:00 am
doesn't quite go deep enough, I think you only have stars down to mag5/6, you need at least good exposure to mag9 but nice try
