I got to see M81 &M82 when I was up in Scotland last year, but unfortunately only through 10x60 bino's 
They were the only two Messier objects missing from my messier list.
I hope to see them telescopically one night before I get too old.

Both easy bright galaxies but slightly bland through the eyepiece. I haven't seen them in years but remember remarking that M82 looked like a smaller NGC55.
