Glad to hear I'm not the only one Steve. I went with dob too for the easy of setup, it is a breeze but not second nature yet.

Main thing for me know is figuring out what to look at and how to navigate to it. I know I will see more in darker skies but in some respects the light pollution makes for easier navigation - simpler skies - just need to identify some bright object to search for.

A drive to Mulbring or Mummorah will be on the cards this weekend I think, it's the backyard until then!

Where do I find out more about Bretti and Mangrove Mt. Allan?

Edit: all good Allan, I have found and subscribed to the thread.
