Pity about that. Bad timing/positioning eh? FWIW, Do you have Astronomy 2005 magazine. If you have, just check out the relevant moon/occultation sections for all the MAJOR events. All the hard work has been done by these guys.(Thank You Quasar Publishing). Next significant object is the Pleiades on Nov.16th @ 20.33. This is for Adelaide ppl only. Sydney ppl @ 20.15. etc etc. HTH.
