Hi Peter,
It sure sounds like you found it.
The best view I have of it is with my 30mm ep. It more than fills the FOV.
The central core is quite bright, but if you look closer you'll notice the arms of the galaxy extend a long long way.
Check it out with binoculars, then, once you know where you're looking, you can see Andromeda naked eye.
