Last night before tea margaret and I decided to give C/Loneos F1 a go.

Clear skies, looks good. After sunset find Antaries, go down about 12 degrees and of to the right about 5 degrees and the it was sitting next the star Graffias (just left of)!

As the darkness slowly set in the view got better. The comet through 30X100 binos (I just love these, great buy) was quite good, an elongated smudge and faily faint but easy to find and see. Margaret was impressed and requested that we get up to see C/Holmes, shall post these details later.
