Aw Richard! I feel your pain mate!! Glad you're starting to feel a bit better now. Like everyone else I'm sure there will be no noticeable aberrations visible as a result of the mishap and the views you get will be spectacular.
That reminds me. Not as frightening as your incident, but one night years ago I was packing up my TOA-150 for the night (before I had an Obs) and, forgetting I had the dust cap off, I used the flat of my hand to push the dew shield back in. The feeling of cool glass on the palm of my greasy hand led to a torrent of loud self abuse. I can tell you, the greasy, but crystal clear palm print covering the objective was a thing to behold!
