erick, you're a champion!
I'm another non-astronomer blow-in with an interest in spotting McNaught, and having made a fruitless visit to an unseasonably chilly St Kilda last night (Wednesday), your "idiot's guide" is just what I needed! I think we may have given up too early (9.30) as I was under the impression that the comet would be visible not too long after sunset. Venus had been clear for a while, but no McNaught. Actually there was a pretty substantial band of clouds low in the sky, so maybe that was the problem. Anyway it seems that if I start later and wait longer, something might appear. Maybe.
thanks again!
