G'day Nick and welcome.
Your account is very reflective of my own a few short years back.
Likewise, I was welcomed with open arms by this community just as the father welcomed back his son.
This dark science where filaments of filtered light shine through to caress our imagination and feed an undefinable and insatiable hunger is a strange yet wonderful place to be.
However, like you I have got most of the right gear, yet I struggle with the management of time and space and when it seemingly does come together, I am robbed by the sky blanket.
So I've tried it, done it and am now on the edge of teaching it. That is, to share this in outreach because it is bound to amaze someone and perhaps later in life after the tides have settled, they may do as so many of us have done, rediscover a hobby that they wished they have never left.
All the best and as Allan indicated, you will find that any of the local Astro groups would be happy and accomidating to have you along to share the experience.
Steve
